Hello all, Further to an earlier discussion on galactagogues, here are some recent references where galactagogues were NOT employed. Just a few off the top of my head. Obviously, if I went back further, I could find more. References in order of most recent: *Seema, Patwari Ak, Satyanarayama L. Relactation: an effective intervention to promote exclusive breastfeeding. J Trop Pediatr 1997; 43: 213-216. [Group 1 had NO metaclopramide, i.e. reglan; Group II had metaclopramide. Outcomes were similar. The authors consider galactagogues like metaclopramide aren't necessary.) * Thorley V. Relactaion: what the exceptions can tell us. Birth Issues 1997; 6: 24-29. *Datta P, Embree JE, Kreiss JK, et al. Resumption of breast-feeding in later childhood: a risk factor for mother to child immunodeficiency virus type 1 transmission. Pediatr Infect Dis J 1993; 11: 974-976. *Kesaree N, Banapurmath CR, Banapurmath S, et al. Treatment of inverted nipples using a disposable syringe. J Hum Lact 1993; 9: 27-29. *Phillips V [Thorley V] Relactation in mothers of children over 12 months. J Trop Pediatr 1993; 39: 45-48. I'm "NO MAIL" for the time being. Any comments or queries to my email. Best wishes, Virginia ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
