I found this on AOL families with a website on BF (part of ivillage).  I went
to the site because it was advertised when my internet came on.  Not bad
survey results!  The disconcerting thing is that once again aol has a picture
of mom/baby being bottle fed.  I wrote to the IBCLC who has info and answers
questions to see if she is aware of this, since the picture is associated
with aol, I think not ivillage.  Anyone who has AOL might take a look.
