Maybe this is a sheer covert capitalist move disguised in the "well, WHO says..." language? The bottles and the nipples don't make Medela any money (maybe they are even losing money from production) and this was a fantastic excuse to curb the loss without damaging their outward-facing brand mission? 🤷♀️
I am absolutely gobsmacked. This doesn't make ANY sense whatsoever. Breastfeeding doesnt need to be MORE difficult! Pumping and maintaining lactation is difficult enough as it is. I wonder how this is going to affect us in the hospital, supply-wise (OB RN here)
Wow.

I agree - I was SO confused!
