I just had this forwarded to me.

Dear Madam Executive Director:

The National Organization of Circumcision Information Resource Centers
(NOCIRC) has released a position statement on the effects of circumcision
upon the initiation of breastfeeding.  The information contained in this
statement is certain to be useful and of interest to mothers, lactation
consultants, midwives, and others.

The statement is located at:

http://www.nocirc.org/statements/breastfeeding_statement2002.html

Please inform your membership of its existence.

Links are invited.

Since about 27 percent of baby boys are still being circumcised in some
provinces, this should be of considerable interest.

Thanks!

George Hill
NOCIRC of Louisiana
P. O. Box 88
Port Allen, Louisiana 70767
