This morning I read an update from obgynworld.com on postpartum
incontinence, which indicated there was a connection between length
of breastfeeding and postpartum incontinence:

"Postpartum incontinence was found to be significantly associated
with smoking, incontinence during pregnancy, length of
breast-feeding, vaginal delivery, use of forceps, frequency of
urination, and body mass index."

Has anyone read more about this? thanks
