Had a discussion with a collegue today about the abbreviations that are
currently in use by LC's
We all seem to agree that ABM is OK for Artificial Baby Milk however some
physicians and moms have expressed disgust at the other abbreiations we use.
Why BM for Breastmilk when it usually applies to fecal movement?
Why EBM for Expressed Breast milk?
My collegue and a couple of physicians have suggested using MM for mother's
milk and EMM for expressed mother's milk might be kinder and gentler.
