Thank you Pamela for your thoughtful posting.
I have the same concerns. The Code was written in an era when pumping and
feeding breastmilk was not anticipated. It sorely needs updating. I do
not agree with the current "official" interpretation of the code.
Recognizing that pump companies are for-profit entities, we need to recognize our
friends and enemies in the promotion of breastfeeding and breastmilk feeding.
