> I am the owner of two independent nurse-midwifery clinics and attend homebirths exclusively. Sadly, we are excluded from the ability to become Baby Friendly accredited, which I think is exceptionally unfortunate. I have written a number of times, but it seems that there is a misconception that if you are a homebirth attendant that either your practice is too small to be counted, or it is assumed to be breastfeeding friendly due to its nature. We are not unlike birth center practices, and sales representatives drop in our clinic just as easily as they do other birth settings.

While Penny is certainly happy to receive your e-mails, please consider this a one way route of communication. If you have a general question, please either save it for your next scheduled visit or call the office at (765) 436-7527. If you are a current client and have an urgent or emergent need after office hours, please stay on the line and an operator will connect you with the midwife.

>> Hi,
>> The Birthing Center where I work is in the Baby-Friendly process and are having really bad luck with all of the reading materials- most of the free magazines we get include ads for artificial feeding which directly violate the Code and Baby-Friendly. Can anyone recommend magazines that you know comply with Baby Friendly standards? I am sending letters to all the ones we get cancelling our subscriptions and voicing my disappointment but for now our waiting room has become really boring :-P
