I was very happy to see the posts regarding articles earlier this week about the use of hospital formula bags and samples, and discouraging their use. So I was very interested when one of my local news stations ran a story as well, thinking perhaps they'd picked up the AP story and were running it.
I was much less excited when I saw the story.
How incredibly disappointing...

On the upswing, I have to say I was incredibly happy to find out that two of my clients were referred to see a GI specialist who told them both that their babies should definitely *not* be given any formula. "Breastmilk only!" Think I'll send him a thank you card.
