A few months ago, over 80 infant health organizations sent the Fed is Best Foundation an open letter asking to have a constructive dialogue regarding their concerns and vocal campaigns about the treatment of insufficient breastmilk supplya legitimate issue that merits due attention. All mothers deserve accurate information about insufficient lactation and they deserve physicians and other health professionals who can properly diagnose and address the issue. No baby should suffer due to anyone's lack of education on lactation management.

The letter, signed by broad array of national organizations large and small, clearly stated we believe that we can be most effective in serving moms and babies when we attack the root causes of a problem, rather than each other. This seemed reasonable.
