Alexis, I liked your letter and hope that the American Society of
Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) will open their minds to what you are saying.
Although one of the problems may be that one of their corporate members is
Wyeth-Ayerst. Obviously from their web site, their campaign is "Protect Your
Fertility" and the baby bottle seems to be the symbol for that.
Breastfeeding does make women infertile for certain periods of time, so I
guess I am not too surprised by their campaign--of course maybe I am taking
them too literally...anyway the web site in regard to corporate members of
the ASRM is

Thanks for making us aware of their baby bottle campaign. Valerie W.
