Judy, what is the breastfeeding initiation rate in Israel?  I heard
yesterday from Jack Newman MD (at his conference..FABULOUS...more on that
later) that the initiation rate of bf dropped in HONG KONG to less than 1%.
CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? BF almost extinguised as a survival behavior.

YIKES.

Kathleen

>helpful to know WHAT to be on the watch for, since epidural rate
>low here, plus bf rate low, people do not know what I do or that
>I exist, so I haven't seen much of bf problems post-epidural.
>Thanks for sharing. Judy Knopf
