I thought some might find this to be interesting. Then again, we all knew
it!!! I sent this to my pediatrician when I found an Enfamil toy in his exam
room. He said the babies just like the toy, I kept saying the moms see the
message about formula being accepted by him. He didn't believe me! I just
hope he read the article!!

MOTHER'S EXPOSURE TO FORMULA ADS LEADS TO EARLY DISCONTINUATION OF
BREAST-FEEDING
Women who receive commercially sponsored breast-feeding educational
materials during prenatal obstetrician visits are likely to stop
breast-feeding their infants earlier than women who receive educational
materials that are free of formula advertising.
