Absolutely lovely little article, dealing with how to deal with
conflicting studies on breastfeeding. Mum centred and Mum friendly. A gem.

"It is difficult to master science at the best of times – let alone in
the fog of exhaustion and hormones caused by giving birth. Had anyone
presented me with a research paper three days /postpartum/, I'd have
found a use for it – but not one connected to what went into my child.

The most important boon of lactation cannot be analysed or
peer-reviewed. It's something our ancestors knew instinctively:
breastfeeding is a chance for mother and baby to connect physically and
emotionally. And for mum to put her feet up."
