You will find information here on use of oxytocin postpartum.  There also is
a section on breastfeeding.  At this same site you can see a nicely done
booklet to fully inform consumers about Cesarean.  A good place to suggest
women go to learn; especially timely with elective cesarean on the rise in
the US.
