WTF are you thinking Mumsnet?

This thread platforms an employee of a company which makes and promotes products for bottle feeding.

The answer to lots of the questions above should be to seek personal advice from a trained lactation consultant - the National.Breastfeeding Helpline is free and available on 0300 100 0212

The midwife above saying "oh no I'm not promoting specific products, my role is to help as a midwife" or words to that effect, is disengenuious. She may not be promoting particular products, but she is here to promote the company. The whole thing is a promotion of the company's name.

I know MN is a commercial company but to platform a promotion that skirts so close to being in breech of a law about marketing formula that exists to protect babies is shameful IMO.

Edited

@sandpiperspring - Thanks for your comment. We are very mindful of the law and the wider guidance around formula marketing and consequently don’t accept advertising for formula milk, including follow-on milk. We don't believe our partnership with MAM is at odds with supporting parents’ feeding choices, as MAM creates products that can be used by families whether breastfeeding, formula feeding, or doing both. This Q&A is clearly labelled as sponsored and in partnership with MAM, so users on the thread are aware of its commercial nature. The midwives’ answers have indeed echoed your point and reinforce the importance of seeking advice from a trained lactation consultant or health professional.

Hi, your glass bottles have been available in your website for 2 months saying they were last chance. They just say out of stock by all the last chance items. They are also no longer in stock in boots/amazon and other retailers? They aren’t sold anywhere old or new design?

Do you know where they are being sold if not by your website?

Hi @BlackWhiteCircle, thanks for your comment - we’ve checked in with the MAM team on this for you.
The glass bottles are not available on the website as MAM are currently updating the designs.
They’ve proved really popular, so they’re currently sold out online and at Boots - but you might still be able to find some in-store. They’re not available on Amazon at the moment, but you can also check Very, where some stock is still available.
Hope that helps!
