You can bet this was set up by Mead Johnson; They have tried this a number
of years ago as Breastfeeding Information Session through Holiday Inns in
Burlington Ontario and Cambridge, Ontario as well as a few other places. All
breastfeeding advocates posed as mothers or grandmothers and asked
appropriate questions and the speaker, who at that time was a Nutritionist
was asked some rather research based questions and the Mead Johnson Reps got
quite upset by the type of questions asked.
If the Loblaw stores involved can't be stopped before it starts, by getting
a letter campaign going and talking about Code violations and how
irrisponsible this is for the health of our youngest children, than people
have to go in large numbers and ask loads of questions. This is probably
more effective than a Breastfeeding Sit In or what ever it is called. But if
they succeed in one area they will move on. I wonder who the Dr. is who is
speaking?

> One of the reasons for advocating human milk (HM) feeding for preterm
> infants is the belief that this provides the infant with a degree of
> protection from infection. Providing fresh HM for such infants is
> challenging for mothers and staff, and consequently it is important that
> its benefits are rigorously evaluated. Therefore a systematic review was
> undertaken to assess all publications concerned with human milk feeding
and
> infection in very low birth weight (VLBW) preterm infants. Nine
studies=97si=
> x
> cohort and three randomised controlled trials (RCT)=97were assessed using
> predefined criteria. Methodological problems included poor study design,
> inadequate sample size, failure to adjust for confounding variables, and
> inadequate definitions of HM feeding and outcome measures. In conclusion,
> the advantage of HM in preventing infection in preterm, (VLBW) infants is
> not proven by the existing studies. Recommendations are made regarding the
> methodology required for further study of this important topic.
