Subject: LOOKING FOR BREASTFEEDING HELP IN OTHER LANGUAGES

Would anyone out there know where I can get information about
breastfeeding for patients in nepali or in the Burmese language which
can be called Karin and something else. I have Googled , gone as far as
the Queenslands health department, Baby Friendly in England and the
Unicef, Who websites. 
We have the interpreter line however I would love something for the
mothers to have when they go home. 
TO all of the Brits what a wonderful show of honnor for the Queen that
we saw on the TV. You really know how to do things up.
Thanks

But there is an English translation so yu can edit when you talk to the
mom.
Hope this helps.
