Pardon my ignorance, but could you translate please? What do <N> and <WOU>
mean? And please, could I repeat the request that lactnetters not use
initials for terms without explaining what they mean.  Those of us not in
North America often use different terminology (for example, let-down reflex,
not milk ejection reflex) and many of us are not trained nurses.  Thanks.
