>I have a co-Leader friend who used to give a lecture to medical students
during their paediatrics block.  She started out introducing herself, then
asked for a show of hands who had breastfed?   Usually about one or two
students at most, often none.  Then, who feels passionate and very well
informed about breastfeeding?  No hands.  Then she said, well, if you ever
encounter a mother with problems associated with breastfeeding, will you
*please* refer them to someone who *is* well-informed and experienced in
breastfeeding.<

Maybe we should be suggesting to mothers that they ask prospective
peds if they are "passionate and very well informed about
breastfeeding" ??
