Hi All!

I too picked up the new mom special from Prevention and was appalled by
the BF article. If anyone wants an easy way to write a letter to the
editor, the Rodale web site is:

Also, a couple of days ago someone posted about the availability of BF
specific growth charts for babies. I am in the same position as the mom
in question, and although I have never hesitated to ignore their advice
(I was told to switch her to straight cow's milk, and not to let her use
me as a pacifier (while I was nursing her to calm her after her shots)),
it would be nice to present these formula pushers with proper growth
charts. You can e-mail me privately with the info.

Thanks.
