I would suspect that even in hospitals many cases are not know to anyone
outside of the actual participants. I expect that it may be relatively
common when there is a delay in lactogenesis II and the only other option is
infant formula.....perhaps supply of expressed breast milk is more common
than actual feeding at the breast.
I too would be interested with how hospitals might deal with an up front
case.
