Regarding confounding study suggesting that epidurals do not cause
breastfeeding problems..... a while back, someone posted about two different
hospitals she had worked in. Each did epidurals, and in one hospital she saw
lots of sucking problems, and in the other, she did not. Each hospital used
a different "cocktail" for their epidural, and she theorized that the choice
of drugs might account for the variance. This is worth looking at further.
