  1. Getting sucked into the Twilight series was *not* part of my vacation plan
  2. Climbed a volcano today and was feeling pretty awesome when I got to the top until it started POURING rain. Now I just feel like a wet cat.
  3. Few things make me as content as wandering around the cobblestoned alleys of magestically crumbling Latin American colonial towns.
  4. Packing for Nicaragua! Can't believe I'm going!
  5. Have you told him thanks from all the breastfeeding moms? RT @phdinparenting Guy whose party we're at does tongue tie clippings for Ottawa.
  6. More #ff love to "old" favorites @bestforbabes @marfgirl @doudoubebe @blacktating @robinpregnancy @cfoutz @lactatinggirl @feministbreeder
  7. Thank you for #ff love - you are the best! @mamaleahita @hobo_mama @momof2chocdivas @thienkim @goodiesformom
  8. "Who is Hygeia?" Examiner article about Hygeia's #green breast pumps and pump recycling program http://bit.ly/4XP6wU #breastfeeding
  9. @marfgirl Very cool! Were you presenting in Bay Area hospitals?
  10. @marfgirl Even though I'm a Certified Lactation Educator, there's still so much about breastfeeding I'd need to learn before I could teach!
  11. One of the major reasons California didn't get the BPA ban passed this year was because of the formula company lobbyists. #breastfeeding
  12. On a side note, I'm convinced that being a lobbyist for infant formula industry has to be one of the sleaziest possible jobs. #breastfeeding
  13. @marfgirl Apparently there are already mandates in place that require HCPs to have a 3hr training in areas like end of life counseling
  14. @marfgirl I'm not sure who would fall under the umbrella. At this stage all of the ideas are just brainstorming.
  15. Another idea was to make 3hrs of #breastfeeding education required for health care providers' license recertification @bestforbabes
  16. California #breastfeeding coalition is interested in ideas for legislative policies that would promote/support bfing. What are your ideas?
  17. It would also add an administrative burden to the distribution of formula gift bags and free sample which would discourage the practice.
  18. This bill would ensure that when infant formula recalls occur, parents could be identified and notified.
  19. One of the ideas from the Cal. #breastfeeding coalition mtg is a bill mandating that formula samples be tracked by lot and expiration date
  20. 4whatitsworth RT @4whatitsworth Mutual of Omaha's lactation room was one of my favorite/useful benefits when I had a little one. #bfing
