Unfortunately due to recent changes in Medela's marketing of products which now violate the International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Subsitutes, I have removed advertising of Medela's products from this web page. You may contact me personally for information regarding their products and for prices on their products at PatIBCLC@aol.com I will continue to carry several Medela products that are in the benefit of babies receiving their mother's milk. Quotes from my professional organization, ILCA : "The Code applies to the marketing of formula, bottles, teats, and foods meant to be given to babies in lieu of breastmilk (Article 2. Scope of Code). Marketing means "product promotion, distribution, selling, advertising" etc. (Article 3. Definitions). There shall be "no advertising or other form of promotion to the general public of products within the Code" (Article 5. The general public and mothers).
