Dear Friends:
This article for continuing education of physicians actually lists
'failure to breastfeed' as a risk to the newborn of cesarean section!
_http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/512946_4_
(http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/512946_4)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Failure to Breastfeed. A meta-analysis of 9 studies found that babies
delivered by cesarean were less likely to be breastfed compared with those who
were delivered vaginally, and this effect seemed to be stronger for those
delivered by unplanned cesareans.[28] Another study of more than 580,000 women
in California found that mothers who underwent planned or unplanned cesarean
deliveries were nearly twice as likely to have breastfeeding difficulties
compared with those who delivered vaginally.[35]"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is a test question about the complications of cesarean section
that gives 'failure to breastfeed' as an answer.
Maybe physicans are getting the message?
Nice to hope so....
warmly,
