This breastfeeding quiz -
http://pediatrics.about.com/cs/quizzes/l/bl_bf_quiz.htm - has the moms on my local moms list up in arms, and I don't blame
them. If you don't score 20 out of 20, the results suggest you don't know enough
to breastfeed successfully.

Here is the link to leave feedback with Dr. Iannelli, the "guide" to the
site / quiz. At the end of taking the quiz (of which I got 18 out of 20 for the
Vit D and another question on vitamins in breastmilk) the feedback was,
"Good Job. I bet your kids are very breastfeeding very well." as if that were
the only factor in whether or not a child was breastfeeding well. Grrr...
On the other hand there were many questions that were GREAT and are
obviously there to eliminate common myths or misunderstandings. I think it just
needs to be presented a little better (and some more research on a few
questions). Overall, great tool to help educate the public.
