I just received a call from a mother of a 5 month old exclusively breastfed baby who is a police officer. She is returning to work and must re-qualify on the firing range and is concerned about lead exposure. Her ammunition is lead free but other firearms are discharged on this range that use lead ammunition. Where can she get information on how to do this safely and avoid lead exposure in her milk?
