For some unknkown reason a local hospital is again placing bottles of water,
glucose water and formula in the breastfeeding infants' cribs.  I need
current articles and bibs regarding the detrimental effects of this practice.
 I do have many resources but I want to make sure I have a fully-loaded
research packet to present to the powers that be.  Please e-mail me privately
as I don't wish to tie LACTNET up with this sorry situation.  I am still
incredulous that this is happening after years of no bottles in the crib.
 Thanks in advance for you assistance.
