What is the actual incidence of bactermia in PP moms?  Fever can be lots of
causes, I guess the question really needs to be rephrased:  Why jump to the
worst scenario and throw breastfeeding out?  Fever can occur after epidural, we
see that often in our hospital, probably 10-20% of PP moms have fever, which
disappears 24-48 hours after birth with no intervention.  What a shame it would
be to discourage breastfeeding in these moms because of this?
