At this point I'm not confident enough in either my anesthetic or
breastfeeding management to try to do both at the same time while mom is
draped, mostly numb and supine on a narrow table :) but if I'm ever up there 
with one of my breastfeeding-experienced attendings, we may  have to give it a 
try.
Dear Friends:
    Try Righard/Alade's paper on delivery self-attachment, and the film/dvd 
"Delivery Self-Attachment." You can google the title and find a distributor.
    Try Anne Marie Widstrom's film "Baby's Choice", available from Capers 
store in Australia
    Try the WHO, with the Evidence for the 10 Steps that gives an assortment 
of research supporting 'initiating breastfeeding within 1/2 hour of delivery." 
    Try Breast is Best, a film from the Philippines that features a baby 
nursing while a mother is being sewed up from a cesarean section.
    That will get you started. Welcome aboard!!
    warmly,
