I don't disagree with you, Dr. Jack, but it would seem that the guidelines would be evidence in a malpractice suit, i.e. not conclusive, but persuasive. Yes, we did discuss this topic (again, I had wanted to post privately on this issue.) Perhaps as breastfeeding becomes widely practiced and accepted, and the public and judiciary recognizes the value of BF, these suits might become viable. (Think of a jury with all moms who had breastfed or men whose partners did so.) Also even if the mother doesn't win, it sends a message. Melissa Kirsch, JD, LLLL
