Hi, All:  I ran across an interesting glossy paperback book on
breastfeeding put out by a baby products company (Johnson & Johnson) in the
grocery store over the weekend.  The only piece of real obvious
misinformation that I could see as I glanced thru it was that, according to
the book, fresh EBM could be kept for only 24 hours in the fridge.  The
freezer guidelines were rather conservative, too, if I recall.  Otherwise,
the book was interesting.  There were a lot of color photos of a variety of
moms/babies (all ages, all colors, all types of situations).  There were
many pictures of moms/babies nursing, reasonably covered.  The complaint I
get from many moms about brstfdg books/videos, is that moms are "hanging
out".  Not so in this book - gives a mom an idea of what others see (or
not) while she is nursing, without "obvious" coverups.  Overall, I was
impressed with what I was able to scan while in the checkout line.  If
anyone else has or sees this book, I'd be interested in more feedback.  I
also recall that it wasn't too expensive.
