From Debra Knight:
"As a working mother of three exclusively breastfed children...But
thanks to good pumps I have been able to provide my sons with
expressed breastmilk and they never had to have artificial baby milk.
I used bottles."

I believe this post exemplifies the problem many on this list appear
to have with comprehending the scope of the Code.  When IBCLCs refer
to exclusively breastfed children receiving regular bottles, we have a
problem.  It concerns me greatly that the climate in the US, where
bottlefeeding pumped milk is viewed as exclusive breastfeeding, is
negatively impacting the breastfeeding culture many of us are working
to create in the rest of the world.
