RE: Tonite's 5pm story... Boozy breastfeeding moms is definitely NOT what the inventors of Milkscreen envisioned. You saw the story (or will see it depending on when you're checking this blog) and know where the mom-inventors stand and where the pediatrician we spoke to stands. But, I promised more information and here it is!!

Milkscreen: http://www.milkscreen.com/

The American Academy of Pediatrics info on breastfeeding. About halfway through the document or so is the specific recommendations on drinking:

Oregon/ SW Wash breastfeeding resources:

Any moms out there.. breastfeeding or not, any dads, any docs... drop me a line. What do you think about Milkscreen? Is it realistic to expect breastfeeding moms not to drink? For mom's-- how did you handle it? Email me: sstricklen@kgw.com I'll only use first names or initials and if you haven't noticed I never, ever publish email addresses or anything like that.

I'm off to shoot another interview for my story that runs tomorrow night at 11pm. It is a facinating, facinating, facinating story (really.. I'm not just saying that to be redundant). Hopefully I can tell you a little bit more about it on my blog tomorrow before it airs.

Happy Tuesday. :-)
