Kathleen, I sure have good news for you then...

I just spent a wonderful day with wondeful people all crazy about
BF!!!!!

We had an educational session in Ottawa with Gabrielle Palmer (who wrote
the book The Politics of Breastfeeding)  and Cheryl Levitt (past
president of the Breastfeeding Committee for Canada).

Very well prepared and organized day, lots of time for discussion and
sharing of good and bad experiences here in Canada and also in every
country where Gabrielle went (which seems to me as nearly half of the
world!!!) ... Superbly stimulating!

Is this enough to pep you up a little, Kathleen???
