yaffa:

    it is not so different on the "other side".... in georgia one of the
pediatrician at the prenatal visit suggested that the mom call and get the
pump....after fuming from the first couple of calls I decided that she was in
fact doing a good thing in that it allowed me to talk to the mom's about what
was and was not a necessity....

   in reply to judy I see some mothers who pump long term and bottle feed
pumped milk...premie mom's somethimes for 6 month s or more...working mom's
often for the first year...
