Like many of you, I've been a busy woman getting everything ready and
going for WBW at our hospital. Last Thursday, our newspaper printed my
editorial on bf support in the workplace and the Mahoney bill. (Thanks
to you who gave the letter to us on Lactnet!)  Well, that editorial led
to a call from the local TV station's health person who is coming
tomorrow to see our pump room for staff.  She'll be interviewing me and
a resident who pumps for her six month old nursling.  :)

Oh, btw, the R--- rep was on Mother-Baby today (as I expected).  I have
copied the WHO Code to distribute to our MDs and take to the hospital's
ethics committee.

We have the Best Start ads back this year!  I'm pleasantly surprised.
