I just want to make one little point here about LAM. LAM stands for Lactation Amenorrhea Method - a form of birth control. Meaning that when a mother is Lactating she is using the fact that her periods have not returned (Amenorrhea) to signal that she is not ovulating and is using that as a Method of birth control. So in the post that mentions that the woman experienced anorexia and LAM, should read that she experienced anorexia and amenorrhea. LAM and amenorrhea are not interchangeable. Felicia Henry, AAHCC & LLLL (who is also trying to include LAM as a benefit of breastfeeding during her childbirth classes).
