I could use your help again!
I have a mom I am working with who has been told by her OB/GYN to immed stop
bfing her 2 month old daughter.  Mom has had problems with "prolapsed bladder"
that he says is CAUSED by bfing.  He states the high levels of estrogen due
to bfing has "weakened all her body tissues" and is causing bladder to weaken.
States she will need surgery soon and it will be difficult to do if still
bfing.
Is he just mistaking the fact that while bfing her estrogen levels are lower
than normal?  Or are low estrogen levels the problem he is talking about?
I appreciate any thoughts.  Thank you
