Well, Peter Jennings really frosted me tonight!  In commenting on the AAP
recommendations, he said (in a voice clearly showing his disapproval) that
the AAP was now "telling" working mothers that they MUST breastfeed within
1 hour of birth and continue 8-12 times a day for ONE FULL YEAR."

I just about lost the dinner I was in the middle of eating.....  Anyone
have the email address for ABC, NY office?  That statement CLEARLY needs
comment.... sigh

PS Sorry I missed the statement about lactation educators and consultants
in one of the recommendations....
