For Jeanette Panchula: Several faculty members from Georgetown U. were here in Madison, WI last week to give a breastfeeding course. I asked them where the schema can be obtained. Vergie Hughes said to request it from the Institute for Reproductive Health, Georgetown U. Medical Center, Washington, DC 20007. In regard to epidurals, she mentioned an interesting observation. They were noticing many mothers with flat nipples after epidurals, meaning babies were having a harder time latching on, causing more incidence of jaundice. They raised the question - Do epidurals relax the nipple tissue, leading to more flat nipples in mothers? (Aside from the problems of babies with disrupted sucking).
