This  breastfeeding quiz - 
http://pediatrics.about.com/cs/quizzes/l/bl_bf_quiz.htm -  has the moms on my local moms list up in arms,  >>>>>
 

well, it is just a quiz by someone with their own opinions, and seemingly  
their own agenda, ....like maybe selling the stuff advertised on that  page?
 
Why oh why would one need to test breastmilk for alcohol?
 
It would be much more simple to do a very quick breath alcohol test on the  
mom if someone really needed to know if she had ingested alcohol. Every ER  
that I know of has the capacity to do a very quick breath alcohol test, just  
like the police can do.
 
Anyway, back to the quiz: In my case, in spite of Bfdg three kids,  plus 
30yrs of MCH nursing experience, 15+yrs working w/ IBCLC credential,  making an 
"A" on the 10yr recert exam, I missed a couple of those questions. 
 
I knew what answers *they wanted*, but I disagreed, so I put the answer  that 
came closest to *my* correct answer, to make a point.
 
My reasoning was that if they see that certain questions get a high rate of  
"wrong" answers, they will revise or throw-out the question eventually, if 
they  are paying attention.
