Is it the responsibility of nurses who do know about breastfeeding to
make the examining board aware of the inaccuracies. If there is such
outdated info about breastfeeding, how do we know that there isn't
equally outdated and inaccurate information about other areas
of nursing care like pediatrics, cancer, surgery, whatever?
Are nurses registered by state or is there a national exam?

Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating.
