I saw this in the coupon section of my Sunday paper, "Similac Mom's 
$130K Payday!"  www.similacmomspayday.com (sorry if this has been mentioned, 
I'm just getting around to a few weeks' worth of coupons).
    Interestingly, in the entry form, there is "If supplementing or formula 
feeding, please indicate the formula you used most often:" drop-down box of 
different brand names and store brands, but no option for "breastfeeding 
only" like in past contests (that sometimes magically blocks the entry).
"Mom, tell us your job description for being a mom in 100 words or less. Let 
us know what you do every day as a mom and why this job merits a $130,000 
salary:" I'd answer "exclusive breastfeeding" etc, but of course it would be 
unethical for us to enter or win.
    Isn't it amazing what a drop in the bucket $130,000 is for these 
companies? I wish our LC depts had a fraction of that much money to spend on 
breastfeeding promotion, support, education, advocacy, etc.

enjoyed watching 2 1/2 year old Harrison mimic, with his teddy bear, 
everything I did to get fussy Lachlan calmed down... tummy time across my 
lap, rocking, sling, burping, bicycling his legs, and of course nursing. I 
loved watching him proudly nursing his bear. Two older brothers their 
"babies" within a week, what a wonderful sight!)
