A mom of a two month old came to the WIC office today to change her
certification status from partially breastfeeding/formula package to
FULLY BREASTFEEDING/NO FORMULA!!!
And I can't even take credit for this one; the mom has a friend who is at
our clinic all the time, both as a patient and as an advocate for the
mothers in the community, she helps them fill out their WIC forms etc.
She does this as a friend absolutely no affiliation with the clinic. Her
friend convinced her to fully breastfeed!
