I am not sure how this is handled. Just wanted to point out that it is not
against the code to manufacture or sell formula, bottles, teats, etc but it
is against the code to MARKET them. So it would seem to me that if the
company in question markets any of these items, even if they are not
marketing them AT the conference, then they are code violators and should
not exhibit. This is my take on it. I agree with Pat though that this is a
difficult situation with many USA moms returning to full time work at 4 and
6 weeks after birth and (even though bottles/teats are not necessary to feed
babies) almost all these babies are bottle fed even if it is ebm in there.
