Hello , I had a baby in Brookdale hospital on December 12th , had to fight
the staff on all breastfeeding issues . They did not even have kits for the
pump. I was the only mother nursing while there . At discharge I was given a
bag advertising Enfamil , minus the formula , but with all the advertising
garbage. The nurse has not heard of the ban on bags.
