Re: [ozmidwifery] Bubhub and Dr Brown's bottle promotions
I am assisting Miriam as office co-ordinator for Safe T Sleep (NZ) Limited and for the past 10 years we have advertised in the NZ Midwifery Newsletter - is there a similar magazine for Midwives in Australia, if so, would someone be kind enough to email me the details.

They could at least abide by the WHO Code. It's not much to ask that sites where women seek support and advice will not offer ads for artificial milk with it's track record of harming babies. Bubhub also has forums devoted to CC and CIO, formula feeding and caesareans. It is also endorsed by Maternity Coalition and ACMI. Strange messages to be sending, hey?

RE: [ozmidwifery] Bubhub and Dr Brown's bottle promotions
At risk of getting crucified for being commercial: Many mainstream sites do include advertisements with formulas and bottles because they are not motivated by birth or better outcomes for women and babies, it's just a business and dollars to them. I often do wonder about the endorsements too, when they are not actually pro- anything or trying to do anything for the greater good. I may not be perfect as I am still learning about some of the companies and dodgy practices, but I do avoid those companies like the plague (even warned the advertising agency I have just signed with not to arrange any formula or bottle companies as I will not accept them). I have offered to do some promotional ads in exchange for some endorsements from similar organizations, but it seems its who you know. They are the #2 family website in Australia, I am #9 but working on it! Hopefully when I am #2 I will be able to have some endorsements too and there will be none of that on my site.
