Hi ..I just got back from being away for a day. I have read a lot of posts
about brand name products, posts that have mentioned name brand items over
and over in the same post.  These posts  have rung very close to advertising
in my opinion.  I would like to post this excerpt from the Welcome note, to
remind you of the rules for advertising on Lactnet.

Thanks.

AVOID MENTIONING BRAND NAMES: Please refrain from the injudicious use of
brand names. In most cases, a generic term, such as cylinder pump, bottle
liner, rubber/silicone teat or pacifier/dummy, semi-electric breast pump,
fully automatic intermittent electric breast pump, etc. will suffice to get
your point across. If you wish to discuss or obtain specific information
about particular products, USE PRIVATE EMAIL.....

Mentioning the name of the product/company ***more than once** OR providing
prices of same OR suggesting that professionals OR THEIR CLIENTS contact
you, or the company distributing/ making the product/service in question in
order to solicit their business is EXPRESSLY FORBIDDEN! This is ADVERTISING
and LACTNET is *not* the place for this. Sharing information is one thing;
advertising and soliciting client contact is NOT ALLOWED!
