The AAP has produced a new booklet on breastfeeding for families- it is quite
good (not free). The BPOP (Breastfeeding in Pediatric Office Practice
Program) is distributing formula-free educational materials to over 1000
pediatric offices, with another 400+ on the waiting list. The AAP Workgroup
on breastfeeding and ACOG are also putting together a breastfeeding manual
for physicians. There is a LOT being done by pediatricians and Obs to
educate their members. The AAFP (American Academy of Family Practice) is
coming along s-l-o-w-l-y.
