Thanks Gail for pointing us to the new article on eliminating formula discharge bags. Ban the Bags is so pleased that we now have over 300 hospitals in the US that have eliminated commercial bag distribution. As always, make sure that if your hospital has gone bag free that you report it to us on the Ban the Bags website at www.banthebags.org. If anyone is working to rid their hospital of this menace to breastfeeding and needs help in doing so, please don't hesitate to contact me to see if I may be of help. If you wish to read more, I have an article on bag elimination in the current newsletter published by Tom Hale at http://www.ibreastfeeding.com/currentnewsletter.pdf.
