Dear Jeffrey, Thanks for sharing your experience with the Ped who came to Breastfeeding Class! I can appreciate your exhilaration....I've had numerous experiences over the years of teaching either Lamaze classes or Breastfeeding classes with obstetricians, pediatricians, or Ob nurses as students. It can raise our anxiety levels. Fortunately soon after that comes a realization and we see ourselves making the transition from crisis to opportunity (as in the Chinese character for "crisis" is also the character for "opportunity"). You were able to use that occasion to do some really good teaching and make some great points!!! ....and in sharing it with us you've spread the exhilaration around. Yes, there is at least one more breastfeeding-smart Pediatrician in the world!!! Think how many babies will benefit from what you conveyed to that Ped! Good for you!
