Depends on where you live. In the US if you say nursing a baby, almost everyone understands it to mean breastfeeding. (I wonder when the term 'nursing' became a euphemism for breastfeeding?). In many other countries 'nursing' a baby generally means childcare, which can be done by anyone. -Claire Bloodgood, IBCLC Georgetown, TX *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
