<<For my own interest / education I would like to ask for opinions on hand
expression of breastmilk.>>

1. Why are many women (just western women?) hesitant/resistant to learn/use
hand expression of milk? (not comfortable touching breast, gadget/technology

2. What actions can be taken to decrease resistance, and increase the
practice of hand expression of milk? (show, demonstrate, model HEM?)
