Heather writes: <This is what bothers me about campaigns to persuade/encourage/teach mothers about the benefits of breastfeeding. Without the structures in place to make it work, mothers are still at the mercy of outdated knowledge.> Amen, Heather! And even worse than outdated knowledge are the often unrecognized, unacknowledged effects of overhydration on latching and the delayed function of the breast that so many mothers are subjected to in medical management. Promises of "pie in the sky" don't deliver the satisfaction expected. And continued tongue tie ignorance among professionals as well. Sigh! Jean *********** K.
