Hi ALL:
I just got off the phone with a nice lady who will be having a LEEP
procedure next month, when her baby will be about 4 months old.  Her
Gyn-oncologist has recommende that she start feeding the baby cereal at that
point. The doctor's rationale is that if she continues exclusive bfdg, her
estrogen levels could be too low for optimum healing after this surgical
procedure, and scarring of the cervix could result.  I have never heard of
this, please send feedback, and references if there are any.  With Great
Thanks to All from:

Martha Johnson RN IBCLC, Eugene, OR
