Any childbirth educators out there that have connections with Lamaze?
 Lamaze is giving out free videos in the maternity clinic where I work.
 They say on the back that they are "on loan from your childbirth educator"
so I suppose they're being used that way, too. It is on baby care and
changes in the family, postpartum depression ,etc.

The first section is on breastfeeding.  This is the only part I watched all
of. The problem I have with the video in general is that a large part of it
is advertising for specific products.  The sponsors for the breastfeeding
part were E######w pumps and P#####x bottles.  I hate for anyone to buy
little battery operated pumps because they think they've got something
great because it's "electric" and they don't work very well for many moms.
Then they assume that it's pumping in general that is the problem not that
pump in particular that isn't very good, so they quit. Plus for many of the
women I work with $40 is a lot of money.
