What is the current wisdom of our breastfeeding advocacy community  
regarding March of Dimes? For a long time, I heard that because they  
accept funds from formula companies we cannot accept money from them.  
I have also heard that they don't really have breastfeeding on their  
radar screen much because their focus is on prenatal prevention of  
birth defects. Recently they seem to be advocating and supporting  
breastfeeding more. Anyone have any wisdom to offer?

Thanks,
  Naomi Bar-Yam
