Hi All-
I am writing b/c we have a mom expecting a baby with spina bifida, she will
deliver by C-section, and the baby will have surgery immediately after
birth, will not be able to feed for 2-3 days.  I searched the archives and
found a handful of posts from 1998, nothing since.  Those posts all
concurred that other than a bit of juggling positions to work around the
lesion, breastfeeding can and should go as usual.  Any other insights?
Please email me as well as posting to the list.
thanks in advance from
Martha Johnson RN IBCLC
