Hi, Mary Ann: Even tho I support the ad council's efforts 300%, I kind of have to agree with some of your staff's comments. I don't like the feelings I'm getting when I'm looking at the posters, as well as the PSAs. My first impression is "How odd". It's making me feel like breastfeeding is this odd, weird thing. And I really didn't like the PSAs - the mechanical bull and the log rolling. Not only did I think them "odd" but they were way too noisy, busy, and loud. Did not leave me with a good feeling at all. I don't think I would choose to nurse a baby based on the impressions these posters and PSAs are leaving me with. And I extended nursed 3 babies! I hope some of the ad council's upcoming work makes a better impression on me. I do like the Dutch article with the co-sleeper in it. I printed out the adorable picture of baby smiling up at mom while at the breast and have that on my office door - one of the staff nurses was in my office talking to me when it came out of the printer and she just melted when she saw that. Some of the other staff made positive comments also, and the picture has only been on my door a couple of hours. Just my personal thoughts...
