Facts about Breastfeeding 1995:
"Maternal choices can impact breastfeeding success. The observed
deterioration in male infants' ability to breastfeed after circumcision
may potentially contribute to breastfeeding failure; some neonates
required formula supplementation because the neonate was judged unable
to breastfeed postoperatively. Early formula supplementation is
associated with decreased breastfeeding duration.
