ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Jan, Might I quote you and may I second your comment. Anyone care to help me compose a letter to AAP requesting a correction/addendum to their news release so that it reflects what Dr. Gartner and others state in the policy? As Media Watch coord for our lactation consortium I already am in contact with Dr Gartner re his work trying to change marketing of the AAP Breastfeeding Book and Ross Labs, so I'd be willing to coordinate a letter (s) regarding the Vit D issue- honestly just sending them a cover letter and Cynthia's excellent Mothering article on the subject might be enough. I just think that once again the public has to know the truth (as you put it, Jan). Frankly I'm getting mighty tired of correcting misinformation in BF class, and mother contacts caused by the health care system.
