Hello everyone, from that other country where everything seems simple and logical by comparison, to North America in particular.  In Norway, the symbol for baby is unmistakably a baby, wearing only a diaper.  This is probably because the designated rooms in public spaces are meant for changing diapers.  Breastfeeding may be done nearly anywhere, so there are no specially marked rooms for that.
Cheers from Rachel Myr, who works on a maternity ward where the souvenir cards given to new parents, with all the baby's vital statistics and the name of the midwife, have a single very ugly drawing of a baby being held in a blanket hanging from the beak of a stork.  The stork is simultaneously bottle feeding the baby.  Now THAT'S one I haven't been able to change yet.  Suggestions welcome, anything except ABM ads would be an improvement!!
