Dr. Ruth Lawrence recently published an article entitled "A Review of the
Medical Benefits and Contraindications to Breastfeeding in the US" (Oct 97)
which is available at no charge from the Maternal and Child Health
Clearinghouse (2070 Chain Bridge Road, Suite 450, Vienna, VA 22182-2536,
phone 703-356-1964; fax 703-821-2098). It is about 40 pages and includes a
comprehensive review of the benefits and risks associated with
breastfeeding. Highly recommended; I don't know of a website (as the
lactnetter asked about), however maybe the clearinghouse knows if there is
one. Judy Schreiber NYSDOH.
