Dear Dawn: Thank you very much for your post. I'm sure you know by now that it went to me as well as Lactnet. But since I would have wanted to forward it to Lactnet anyway, you saved me the effort! To add to your description of mental health treatments that undermine breastfeeding and attachment: I recall very well how in my clinical training one of the counseling goals urged by one of my supervisors was the elimination of parents cosleeping with young children. Had I known then what I know now, I would have been a much more effective advocate of changing this. I look forward to thoughts from others regarding my questions about mental health and breastfeeding.
