I just watched (my 1 hour a week) StarTrek Voyager.  There was a baby
born.  The mother asked the Dr. "When can I breast-feed?" (My husband and
I both clearly heard the hyphen)  The Dr. answered "anytime" but went on to
caution her that they would have to seek alternatives in about 4 weeks
when the baby's (father is non-human) incisors erupted because the mother
had no protective scales on her breasts.  I guess no one told him that
babies can't nurse and bite at the same time.  How about some creative
positioning here.   Actually it was a positive interchange, not vital at
all to the plot, and just proves that even in the 24th century breastmilk
is still the gold standard.
