And therein lies our real problem. If we can't make the pediatrician's and
other health professionals understand, what can we do? My husband's
partners, (Pediatricians) while supportive of breastfeeding (they actually
are) still don't understand why Ross sponsoring the book would be a problem.
And they are all convinced dh and I are a little nuts because we won't
allow anything with baby bottles in our house.
