[ID] 196 [Interest Areas] Concerned Citizen [Comment] Obstetrics care in this country is not currently based on science but on myth, opinion, pocketbooks, fear. Many of the practices found in the average labor & delivery hospital have no value at best and at worst cause harm. Many of those same practices interfere with the initiation and continuation of breastfeeding through delayed milk, drugged mothers/babies, and increased incidence of postpartum depression (quite often actually PTSD). In order to successfully increase breastfeeding initiation and sustainability, we must get back to evidence based maternal medicine. [Topic]
