Hi Ellen,
OK so Avent, Tommee Tippee, Medela, Pigeon and Medela are in the same
category. They all maintain that their bottles are the closest to
breastfeeding.
I would maintain that we need to distinguish between the need for a product
and the need for that product to be advertised and marketed to the public.

Subject: formula companies vs. breastpump companies
Hi Karleen,
Today there is no difference between Medela and Avent because they both
violate the Code with their marketing tactics for their bottles. What I
meant to say was that I differentiate (right or wrong) between formula
companies and pump companies who do market their bottles. I think the
reality today is that many women are using bottles and keeping breastfeeding
going, and I wish that the bottles were not idolized, but there you have it.
My own thoughts which are not always cut and dried!!

"As has been said many times, breast pumps are not covered by the code but
feeding bottles are and many companies that make and market breastpumps also
make and market infant feeding bottles in ways that breach the Code...I'm
wondering though if what you really mean is that you differentiate between
Medela and other companies that market feeding bottles in ways that breach
the Code?? Forgive me if I have misinterpreted what you wrote"
