This has come up when a pregnant friend of mine asked my medical opinion on what "correct" answer should she expect when asking breastfeeding question during a pediatrician interview. Specifically, she wanted to know that if she asked "under what conditions would you recommend supplementing in the first two weeks of life" and wanted to know weight loss percentages, etc. I'm usually a gestalt kind of person, so coming up with good questions/answers for her was difficult. What do you consider to be good answers and good questions for expectant mothers in choosing pediatricians with regards to breastfeeding? How would you recommend a lay person distinguish between a good "talker" and someone who will actually support her when needed? Thanks!
