Here we go again! Prove that breastfeeding is okay! The OB should find
the literature to prove it's not okay.

I have asked in presentations to OB's: Is is possible to induce an early
abortion by giving pregnant women IV oxytocin (pitocin) and they
universally say no.  These are doses much higher than ever the mother
would develop by breastfeeding.

Proof, Doctor, proof of what you are saying, or are you just shooting
the breeze again?
