Diane asks,

<< Can anyone think of *any* reason why anticipated installation of a 
pacemaker
 would not be compatible with breastfeeding?  The recommendation - that this
 newly-delivered mother not even start - apparently came from an IBCLC.  All
 I can figure is that she and I come from different planets...
  >>

Isn't it because the milk in the breast will short out the pacemaker??  =Þ

(And for those of you who think I'm SERIOUS, I think this was one of the 
stupid reasons for not breastfeeding when we were listing them.  I certainly 
hope no IBCLC really believed this!)
