Dear Judy (forgive last message addressed to Segev),
Having worked with frustrating hospital policy for 3 years now my best advise
is to just keep plugging away. Drop of articles from the medical literature.
Enlist any RN or MD friends and keep plugging.  In my hospital I was told
that all mothers had to go home with formula "in case something happened to
mom". I received a small grant to provide breastfeeding discharge packs(no
formula included) and it has been distributed by the nursing staff without
any problems. Good luck.
