If you ask a  formula company how they got your name will they know,  will 
they  tell you? I just talked with a mom yesterday how she was so  surprised  
that 
when she got home from the hospital there was the box of  formula  sitting 
there. She did use it along with breastfeeding in  the early  days. 



Dear Friends:
 
I hate this. I hate that moms get free formula from a variety of different  
sources, in some 'magic' way.........yet our local nursing mother's groups 
could  not longer get referrals from local hospitals. This meant that new  
breastfeeding mothers couldn't get free help from local, trained volunteer  
counselors. Somehow HIPAA works in one direction, and not in  another.

 
Grrrrr!
