Dear Friends:
Check out JHL 13:2 1997 pp. 145-147 “Observations Based Upon Multiple
Telephone Contacts with New Breastfeeding Mothers”. (Disclaimer: I wrote it.)
The bulk of the calls were made in the first week after discharge (which
is when breastfeeding is most likely to be lost). Moms were asked how bf
felt, if the baby was smiling and what color was the poops. Anticipatory
guidance was given about hand expression to soften full areolas, and that one could
bf if ill.
warmly,
