Our hospital childbirth educator was mailed an offer to order free DVD's
called "Preparing and Caring for Baby" from a source called Baby Basics.
These DVD's are meant to be distributed to expectant parents during childbirth
classes. Included in the brocure is a paragraph that reads, "The segment
on "Breastfeeding" features an International Board Certified Lactation
Consultant (IBCLC) and member of the International Lactation Consultant
Association (ILAC) and has been approved by (AWHONN). THERE IS NO
MENTION OF INFANT FORMULA WITHIN THE VIDEO"
There is no phone # included other than a fax # to place an order. I have
googled for "Baby Basics" and nothing comes up about this company. The
return address is Cleveland, Ohio. Are any of you familiar with this DVD? Is this
a ploy by one of the formula companies? The smallest order one can place is
for 100 DVD's.
