Here is an email I just sent to Lamaze. Sometimes I think, they just don't get it! Does anyone have another idea how to make the point?  

"Good Afternoon,
I was very surprised and disappointed to see Lansinoh exhibiting at the recent Lamaze Conference in Nashville. Seems to me it "flies in the face" of supporting, defending, and promoting breastfeeding. I am very confused why Lamaze, as an organization, on the one hand says it is supporting breastfeeding...and on the other hand, allowing a WHO Code non-compliant company to promote their products to educators. The obvious answer (to me) would be for dollars. The only way companies will ever change their marketing practices, is for organizations like Lamaze to stop allowing them to exhibit."
