Thank you all for your positive comments about the breastfeeding
satisfaction letters for mothers to send to hospital administrators on the
Illinois Breastfeeding website.  I checked with Brenda Matthews, IL State
Breastfeeding Coordinator and Chair of our state task force and she says the
documents may be freely shared.  Check back for our 2011 Breastfeeding
Awareness Month proclamation.

<Michelle

<Thank you so much for sharing the Illinois Breastfeeding Coalition
documents on the Breastfeeding Bill of Rights, good experiences 

<and poor experiences during peripartum hospital stays. These documents are
absolutely brilliant. Congratulations to the team that put 

<them together. I hope it will be OK if I share them around?? Here in
England I think they could be very usefully employed, or adapted, 

<to encourage better breastfeeding practice. Our breastfeeding awareness
week is imminent - thanks for sharing these lovely advocacy 

<tools!
