Ok, here I go with a "dumb" question.
 
I know that the WHO guidelines do not want any advertising of  ABM etc.  
However, playing devil's advocate.  What about mothers who  return to work.... 
don't they need good quality bottles that are going to be as  close to the 
natural nipple as possible to avoid any confusion?  I know  that in my own case, I 
studied up on several brands before ultimately deciding  on Avent.  I had to 
return to work, and obviously baby had to have bottles  in my absence.  Although 
Dh did bring her to my work to nurse 3 times a  day, She still needed bottles 
of ebm.  Without the ability to look into the  different styles of bottles 
and nipples, I may have used the wrong kind and  gotten her terribly confused.  
My point, in a long winded, round about way,  is that although we would like 
there to be nothing but the breast, reality says  that bottles are necessary 
for the working mom.
