I just counseled a new mother today who was exclusively breastfeeding and had
to return to work in a short time.  She advised me that her employers are
willing try something new - to allow her to bring the baby with her to work
until it is  6 mo. old so breastfeeding does not have to be interrupted or
interferred with.
    I saw the post about the Eddie Bauer company having a room where moms can
pump and/or breastfeed their babies at the office place and  thought wouldn't
it be nice if some agency or group with some funds could produce a
certificate of Appreciation to send these companies complimenting them on
their very wise and important decsions to be breastfeeding baby friendly?????
 Perhaps a letter telling them why their decision is so important and wise to
go along with a certificate to display.  Anybody interested???

BRAVO TO P&N ALARM COMPANY IN MONTICELLO, N.Y. FOR ALLOWING AN EMPLOYEE TO
PROVIDE THE BEST FOR HER BABY BY BEING ALLOWED TO BRING HER BABY TO WORK IN
ORDER TO BREASTFEED

P.S.:  another bravo who sued the hospital for giving bottles to her baby
against her expressed wishes.
