What do you all think about this one?
Our newspaper today reported the story of a woman bitten on the breast by a
neighbour's dog. She has an 11-day-old baby.
"Mrs S was given a tetanus injection and is on antibiotics. her doctor has
advised her to avoid breastfeeding the baby because of a risk of
transferring infection.
She believes her only option to prevent her milk supply drying up is to
express milk from her injured breast - an option that has so far proven too
painful."
