A couple of ideas to sow the seed.....At a public health clinic the staff
had posted photos of all the breastfed babies on the wall. (no such posting
for the others). Why not make a chart of kids in yur practice listing
breastfedd and number of sick visits, compared with aritifically fed and
number of visit borken down by ear infection, etc... and then a big list of
breast fed kids had --% fewer sick visits?  I also heard a pedi MD speak at a
LLL conf who tells prospective pts if they are not going to BF she won't be
their Dr. She said if I could do it while I was a medical resident working 80
hours per week you can too.
