I loved Cathy's idea for the theme for the WBW 2006. I wholeheartedly
support it. What can we do to move this idea forward?
PS Guess who came prancing through the unit this afternoon in the midst of
chaos (big time baby explosion)? Our beloved and we like her Mead Johnson
rep. Press release in hand stating how MJ is sending formula to the Gulf coast.
She told me they were only sending 6 oz premixed formula bottles and they
WERE sending small bottles of sterile water. I told her send gallons of
drinking water. She also had her supply of pens. Nice big fat blue ones with
E......all over the place. One of the OBs said it looked like a mini personal
device. (He is naughty) and nice hot cinammon soft pretzels. I declined my pen
and she knew why...after she left all the greedy ones found out the price of
free pen...it writes blue! Too bad can't advertise around our place. black ink
only please.
Then the sneaky guy from Good Start showed up to get the one neo,
fortunately I had her undivided attention while we were drawing blood on a baby and
told her why she shouldn't fall for his line. She replied she knew that but
since this is the WIC contract we need to support him, I told her, " No we need
to support breastfeeding to WIC Moms, they get more attention from the WIC
LCs and support services if they choose to exclusively breastfeed and we need
to promote that rather than stock up on Good Start." God only knows what he
promised her.
I wish the WIC LCs could come by like the formula reps and sell
breastfeeding for their clients. It would be a novel idea.
