Mimi, congratulations on becoming vice chair of pediatrics at your hospital. They must have had a moment of true clarity in making that appointment. But these wiseguys, who say, "Now you wont be able to talk about breastfeeding or bonding for the next two years," are THEY ever in for a l-o-o-n-g two years! What on earth else are you going to talk about? It all starts with BF and bonding! And in the words of my friend to her legislators in Maryland, "since the US health care system is in such a mess, wouldn't it be better if all children at least started out healthy?" Proud to have you on Lactnet, Dr. Vice Chair. When will the first grand rounds on bonding be? Just don't forget to send an invitation to The Other Place.
