Letter to the editor: Another "BF Failed" letter to the editor in response to
other BF supportive letters to the editor about the 6/13/00/ article "When
Breastfeeding Fails" pg 4. This mom in todays' letter had a premie and is
pumping and feeding exp milk (she needs encouragment to continue and to
consider getting help with feeding at breast).

From article: "142 Things You Really Should Know About My Gall Bladder" By:
Jennifer Huget. "I woke up to express milk, which I will have to throw away
because it's full of anesthetics. I hesitate before dumping it: What would be
so bad about doping the baby up a bit when I get home? Maybe he'd sleep
better. Shame on me! I dump the milk". (pg15).
