I need some stats!!

[liam's mom]

I'm being challenged about something. I'm fairly certain that the number of women who CANNOT breastfeed or who have low supply (low enough that baby cannot grow/thrive on it) is quite low.

Would anyone know where I can find info on this? I've tried searching but I'm not sure what to look under. I'm tired...

Thanks in advance!!

gonna be a hard one to get exactly. simply because *some* of the low supply problems are due to poor bf management.

Meribeth-

Try asking the ladies at Breastfeeding.com (go to the debates board, some very smart breastfeeding women hang out there) OR try Promom.com-both excellent sites for quick info on breastfeeding!!!

HTH!

PS I didn't mean to imply the women here weren't smart, they truly are, but that there are TONS of moms on the bf.com boards and they are all talking about the same thing-breastfeeding (so you are going to get your answer quicker I bet)
