Breastfeeding Sites

The current state of breastfeeding in the country is not just solely the fault of the milk companies. It is also the fault of us health workers. We always want to take the easy way out, the path of least resistance in Ohm's law. But also because most of us do not know what to do when there are problems with breastfeeding. The first being there is no milk. How many of us checks if the baby is correctly latching on? How many of us know that repeated feedings increase brestmilk supply? I bet all of those midwives who were interviewed in the "Formula for Disaster" would never know what the answer is. So I am asking all the proper authorities, all the breastfeeding experts available and willing, all those concerned about this problem, PLEASE TRAIN US NOT JUST THE BASIC KNOWLEDGE THAT BREASTFEEDING IS THE BEST MILK, BUT HOW TO GO ABOUT COUNSELING THESE MOTHERS. HELPFUL LOCAL LINK. INTERNATIONAL LINKS
