I have a back/front page I saved from Jl of Human Lactation from some
yrs ago (not sure how many yrs) - I give it out to moms who have these
concerns. I am not very computer-savvy so if anyone knows how to access
this page online, pleas let me know, as I would like to save it
electronically. Otherwise, I can fax it to you if you email me off-list.
Thanks.

Subject: help to show bf benefits after 1 yr

Does anyone have a recent article that details the benefits of bf after
1 yr?  One of the pedi docs I work with just told a mom there were no
benefits after 6mo, and since her child just turned a year, she should
'make things easier for herself, and stop bf.'  She stopped that day!
 Called me due to engorgement, and when I asked if she wanted to
continue a few times a day, we got into the discussion about the value
of brmilk in the second year.  She trusts my statements, but we want to
help the doc understand as well.  Thanks for the wisdom of the Lactnuts!
