-- [ From: Carolyn Brown * EMC.Ver #2.5.02 ] --

Nestles has ads for its Carnation brand ABM which run during the "Today"
program.  Perhaps that has something to do with Katie Couric's defensiveness
when she covers breastfeeding stories? (When those ads come on, we either
change the channel, or use it as an illustration for "this is what Mommy
means when she says Nestles doesn't play by the rules".)

Regarding the green stools of the baby whose mother is a heavy smoker:  The
_Breastfeeding Answer Book_ states that "smoking decreases prolactin".  My
thinking is that decreased prolactin = less hindmilk = green stools.
Anything to this, or am I way off base?

best to you all from
