I received this via email today and thought I would share. If you need information when the InfantRisk Center is closed another resource is www.safefetus.com.

I talked with Dr. Hale about the new call-in center. He is asking all to vote for more funding for the InfantRisk Center through a Pepsi grant. A link to vote for the new center is on the InfantRisk Center web site. Use the link below, or click on Breastfeeding when you go to www.InfantRisk.org.
Vote for funding for the InfantRisk Center at the link below.
If the InfantRisk Center gets the most votes it will get the grant.

Please get the word out that the InfantRisk Center is now open for questions about medications used during breastfeeding and also pregnancy.
Now go and vote! Hopefully the center will be awarded the grant!
