Stewart,
Cudos, to you! A a recent joint LLL Volunteers, WIC Staff, and Local
Breastfeeding Coalition meeting, I saw an awsome slide presentation
which showed the difference in BF rates and durtion between, Peer
Supported Mothers, Mothers who received no support, and Mothers whose
OB/Gyn or PED was supportive...Guess who won Hands down!
A supportive Doctor carries more weight with Pregnant Women, and Women
having difficulties (real or percieved) than any other, Health Care
Professional or Peer. Keep up the GREAT work!
