Dear Friends: Dr. Miriam Labbok has written that if a mother breastfeeds before offering complementary feeds, LAM can be effective up to 9 months. And if she pumps as often as she would be breastfeeding, she can keep 96.5% protection from pregnancy for up to 8 months. Another incentive..... warmly, Nikki Lee RN, BSN, MS, IBCLC, CCE, CIMI craniosacral therapy practitioner www.breastfeedingalwaysbest.com www.myspace.com/adonicalee *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
