The ABM new Protocol #13 Contraception During BF says "Women can use LAM 
while working if they pump their breasts and provide milk to the baby's 
caregiver during their absence.  However, in one study using this approach, 
the efficacy was about 95%, slightly lower, but not significantly different 
than efficacy in women not separated from their infantrs.  Further research 
is needed on this issue; however, if this if the only method a woman is 
willing to accept and is well informed of the possiblity of decreased 
efficacy, LAM should remain an option for women who are regularly separated 
from their infants."

The Protocol is in the inaugural issue of BF Medicine, which was being 
offered as a Free Peek at the publishers, www.liebert.com

Now -- what I love about Lactnet is that Nikki Lee is a (revered) local 
colleague -- literally lives about 4 miles from me -- and yet, this global 
forum for communication and sharing has brought her question to me.  How 
cool is that?
