Hi Aimee

I'm sorry I don't have any evidence to use to back it up, why oh why  
can't the doctors use their own eyes.  I mean what is she going to  
substitute the breast milk with, some sort of formula?

Anyway, I know of a mum on the EPers email list who exclusively  
expressed and EBM fed her baby for about 2 years, can't remember  
exactly.  If you like I'll post a request for her to contact you, I  
can't actually remember her name.  The amazing thing about this mum is  
that she expressed fresh milk for her bub for those two years, so she  
would express each feed as it came up and just put it directly into  
the feeding tube.  If you are interested you could pass the EPers list  
details onto the mum too:    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EPers/

I know this isn't exactly what you are after, but it is the closest I  
know of.
