IMBCO is deeply saddened by the loss of our long time advisor Miriam Labbok, MD, MPH, IBCLC. With Miriam's extensive international experience with UNICEF and the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative she provided IMBCO guidance in creating the IMBCI and supporting documents. To learn more about Miriam's legacy visit the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) link here.
Unfortunately IMBCO also lost another passionate breastfeeding supporter, Dr. Audrey Naylor who gave IMBCO permission to use her term "MotherBaby" in our document. Audrey affectionately and simply stated that you don't separate the mother and baby - it's "MotherBaby". You can read more about this dedicated teacher on WABA's page.
