 Subject: WIC TV commercials

 Don't know if the new WIC commercials have been mentioned on lactnet (if any
 of you busy people has time to watch TV).
 The commercials are running on my local stations (out of Los Angeles).  There
 are wonderful.  Very well done.  Breastfeeding and supporting working
 breastfeeding moms is portrayed from the baby's point of view.
 So nice to see this positive work.
 Big thanks to those WIC people who put the spots together.

Marie, the commercials were done by Best Start (USDA contracted with Best
Start to produce them) last year.  They premiered August 1997.  They are very
well done; you can probably order them from Best Start -- I know they have a
loop tape that they did for WIC.  I run the loop tape at health fairs and the
babies always draw lots of smiles from onlookers.  :)
