Initiating the breastfeeding relationship

The first hours of life are critical to establishing a successful breastfeeding relationship between you and your baby. Find out if your hospital (if delivering in a hospital) supports breastfeeding. Hospitals that do, will not offer your baby any formula. I gave birth at NYU Medical Center, which does offer the formula option. As such, when we checked in the nursers consulted with me to see if I wanted to breastfeed or formula-feed. I made it clear to them that I wanted to breastfeed exclusively. I went so far as to create a sign, printing 2 copies and placing them inside and out of the hospital bassinet.

BARE™ Photo shoot

Hi readers,

We are happy to report that we are making significant strides towards a successful BARE launch later this year. Between now and then we will be hosting many events, so stay tuned.

One such event is this coming weekend – the BARE photo session with 5 lucky winners from our BARE photo contest. You may have notice that we ran a photo contest in search of 5 babies to be our BARE babies. We received 100s of submissions, but unfortunately, we had to limit our choice to 5 babies, with a mix of boys and girls of various ages. Our selection of babies was based on gender and the age of the child. We thank all of the parents who participated and will keep you in our database for other photo shoots.
