Laurie,
I was thinking of responding to the post that talks about pediatricans not
being positive on breastfeeding. I find it so hard to beleive that these "well"
educated individuals are not more educated and/or supportive about lactation.
I often wondered if it had to do with the not breastfed child being sick
more often and therefore being in the forementioned offices more often,
consequently boosting their income. I just hate to think that the individual that most
likely started out wanting to "help" children can be broadsided in some way.
I have thought this way for awhile but never wanted to actually say it til
now. LOL
