Gail, feel free to forward my post to the ABM ethics committee. Another way to help mothers understand where to find qualified help with breastfeeding is to post to the Facebook, Twitter, etc sites of Babble.com and WebMD regarding these efforts to sidetrack mothers from credible breastfeeding help. We can also make sure that both Facebook and Twitter (and other social media sites) receive a storm of posts regarding this inappropriate behavior. Mothers need to know that the information provided at these sites is designed to sell a product that is a direct competitor of breastfeeding, not to help the competition!
