[ID] 425 [Interest Areas] Breastfeeding Coalition Representative Public Health Worker [Comment] Health Care Providers are too quick to dismiss breastfeeding in cases such as jaundice and weight loss. These problems can be assessed and solved many times before formula even needs to be considered. I believe more lactation support is needed and should be promoted in and out of the hospitals. There seems to be too much of a focus on numbers (ounces of formula, ounces of weight gain, etc.) rather than what is best for mother and infant. For some women, preserving breastfeeding is what is most important to them. [Topic]
