Yes, I am NOMAIL and now I need something! Funny how that works. I have a mom that I will be seeing today who has given birth to a baby as a result of a rape. While I personal experience with rape, I have none with having a child out of such violence. I am confident that I can be of help to her from a lactation stand point (she is being seen for basic breastfeeding how tos) but want to address this issue for immediate response because of the background. Anyone have experience with these kinds of cases? I have experience from a counseling stand point with incest among the teenage population to draw from but hey, this may be different or there may be no problems. I just want to be sure to boost the positive aspects and leave her breastfeeding her baby while feeling good about herself. Breastfeeding under these conditions could be a problem for some moms. I would appreciate any feedback you may have on this subject. Please send private e-mail because I am NO MAIL from the list. Thanks, Melissa Brancho [log in to unmask]
