US has pretty much gone to IPV, instead  of oral.  IPV - inactivated polio
vaccine by injection.

I think the statement about not BF 2 hours pre & post oral polio
immunization is one of those "urban myths."  Riordan & Auerbach say it is
OK (with ref) and BF Answer Book says same with a ref from  AAP Committee
on Infectious Disease 1994.  Red Book 2000 makes no mention on any delay in
BF.

You know we just  have to make BF harder, if at all possible :-( hence this
on-going myth - it has been around a loooooooong time.)  Sincerely, Pat in
