we seem to be having a terrible flu season here in denver, and i had a former client call about meds she had been given, etc. she asked, of course, whether her baby would get sick from her, and after i explained how her milk will produce antibodies, and told her she should drink some of her own milk, she answered "how much?" - and this from a very mainstream mom. i guess the flu is awfully bad. but i do recommend it to people. carol brussel IBCLC
