Hello fellow Lactneters!
My name's Patt Jamieson from Renton, WA and I signed-on about 2 weeks ago.
I'm an LLL Leader and an Assistant Area Professional Liaison. I'd like to
echo everyone else and say that it's great to read such great information
about breastfeeding. I also wanted to thank Janice Riordan for posting her
abstract on the Cost of Not Breastfeeding, it was very informative! Janice,
are the potentional savings in health-care costs for one year? Also, is this
assuming that the breastfeeding rate is 100%? How long would mothers be
nursing  for the U.S. to receive these potential savings in health care
costs?
