Same deal for the Nursing Mothers' Assoc of Australia. We do not use "nurse"
to describe breastfeeding here (general usage means hold, as in asking a mum
"can nurse the baby") but "breastfeeding" couldn't be put in the telephone
book. Thankfully things changed with time and NMAA became the Australian
Breastfeeding Assoc a some years ago.
