Breast-feeding promotes wound healing
  12 November 2003

Excerpt:

Breast-feeding may help the scars of childbirth
 fade. Lactation speeds
 wound healing and lowers stress in rats, researchers
 told this week's
 Society for Neuroscience Annual meeting in New
 Orleans, Louisiana.

 "It's quite possible that mothers who breast-feed
 their newborns will have
 accelerated healing of tissue damage compared with
 mothers who
 bottle-feed," says Tara Craft from Ohio State
 University in Columbus, who
 studied the rats.
