Dear Dr. Ben -
Yeah for you!! What a wonderful post to read. Wish you lived in NC
(USA) when my babies were small!
I have some suggestions for helping *your families* breastfeed. (I
lovingly call our group's members "my mamas" too.)
1. Meet with your local LLL Leaders and get to know them and the LLL area
Professional Liaison.
2. Have a list of breastfeeding friendly childbirth,breastfeeding and
parenting books handy for your patients. I would be happy to send you a
list of our groups favorites if you e-mail me privately.
3. Hire nurses who are committed to breastfeeding as you are.
Best Wishes for a successful practice!!!
WarmLLLy,
Elizabeth
