Susan, you said: Has anyone else seen the excellent article in the Fall 1999 Birth Gazette about the ethical issues related to using a formula company's lactation stats? I have felt this way myself...how can the stats be trusted when they are produced by "studies" that double as marketing tools? Yes, I do feel that way and I am glad that questioning of this is appearing in print. Is this on-line where someone outside the US can get ahold of it???
