my boy was born on last Dec, full BF w/o any formula milk.
I had a horrible flu in this March that I need to take ANTIBIOTICS, the 1st doctor respected my choice and garantee that i can still carry on BF with the medicine she prescribed, but the 2nd doctor suggested me to stop BF until i recovered. I believed he just didn't want to take any trouble to find out.
However, neither of them discourage me from BF. certainly family support is very important. my husband did stop me from BF at that time.
my girl, now 4, was BF up to 13 month and rarely check with doctor before kindergarten.
