Hello --

I, too, agree about Parenting being better than the others.
I wrote letters to Child and Parents suggesting that they
offer assistance with breastfeeding in their magazines.  I
suggested an "ask the LC" column where readers could ask
common questions. On the same page they could tackle things
like "proper latch" with drawings of improper and proper
technique.  Also they could have a little box with pumping
tips, storage info, engorgement issues, what's normal and
not, how to know when baby is getting enough, common
allergens, colic, different positions, nursing in public
tips, the list goes on.  I said how it would be a really nice
way to support breastfeeding mothers; that I felt that their
magz often pointed out problems but rarely offered
solutions...  So we'll say.  Haven't heard back yet.
