Hi all, I just recently went to a great workshop on domestic violence. The group mentioned that pregnant women are more likely to experience domestic violence... if they are in a likely situation. I was wondering about the results of such abuse on breast feeding. I realize the implications of such abuse on a womans self esteem. I also remember that there will be a speaker who will talk on this issue at the ILCA conference. I think that we should all be more educated about this very sad issue because of the huge problem this is. The speakers at the workshop said that 1 in 6 women will or have experienced some domestic violence. Anyone aware of a good article that we can add to our files on this subject, or possibly some of you could share your thoughts on this? Linda Rosetti RN, IBCLC Clarkston, Wa [log in to unmask]
