Dear Lactnetters
We have here a mother whose infant, 2 years old and always breastfed, is
actually in hospital with the diagnostic of diabetes mellitus... and the
doctor tell the mother to stop breastfeeding immediately. The mother DON'T
WANT to stop. I have lots of informations about diabetes in the BF mother,
diabetes and not BF, but almots nothing about this circumstance. Do someone
know medical references and so on this mother can give to the doctor (or can
we only tell her to see another doctor, or to continue to BF secretly as she
do actually...)
Thank you all in advance !
