> Then, a letter to the doctor describing your conversation with the mother. This is a learning opportunity for the doctor. They may be delighted to know there is a knowledgeable resource for breastfeeding information nearby. I believe the key is coming from a place of confidence and respecting that the doctor also wants to help his patient but is misinformed. If they are forthcoming many will admit that their breastfeeding education was sub-par or nonexistent.
I like this idea ! Even a parents' educative hand-out with a cover letter would
go a long way, I believe .
Question, would I give the option of the parent to deliver the information or
should I just mail it ?
What would you do ?
