Hi all,
Well if you didn't see Strong Medicine last night on the Lifetime network to
missed  seeing the "Lactation Expert"  portrayed as an uncaring, insensitive
B.......  Not only was the LE portrayed this way but the doctor states that
breastmilk in only marginally better than formula and that since the mother
had developed Postpartum depression and started on Antidepressants she
couldn't breastfeed.  I have seen most of the shows in the past that have
shown LCs on other TV stations, but this was by far the worst.
I promptly wrote the network.  Doubt it does any good, but made me feel
better.
Thanks for listening
