There is some misinformation being spread by some pediatricians in my town,
telling mothers who work at my son's co-op preschool that they cannot be
tested for TB (a requirement for working at the school) while lactating.
I've searched the archives and while I've come across various experts saying
it's okay, I'd love to have an official statement from the AAP that I could
print up for these mothers to show their doctors, particularly as I'm just a
layperson and not an LC.  I've got a 51 page document from the CDC, but it
addresses vaccines in a more general way, and the mothers I'm dealing with
aren't necessarily pro-vaccination ;-)

Thanks for any and all replies,

Emily Roysdon, IBCLC-wannabe and
