Hi Lehafken. In case you weren't aware, I have left some feedback regarding your recent edits on the Breastfeeding talk page. Please make sure that you are summarizing sources accurately and that you are not giving undue weight to minority opinions. Take care, Clayoquot ( talk | contribs) 18:04, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
Ok, sorry, I will be more careful. Were any of my edits ok? Lehafken ( talk) 18:05, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
Hi Kporter0918, I have a question. Why do my edits on breastfeeding jaundice keep being deleted? In everything I read in the literature about neonatal jaundice and feeding method, and even on UptoDate it is acknowledged that exclusive breastfeeding is a risk factor (if I remember correctly). As an IBCLC of 17 years, it seems to me that parents need to know this information even if it will affect their feeding choices. Some will want to supplement proactively, which can avoid the inherent mother-baby separation for phototherapy and potentially longer hospitalization or readmission. I know that is not what is recommended by breastfeeding authorities like the ABM, but it’s an issue of informed consent and parental choice, and parents need to know that if they do choose to supplement, they will need to initiate pumping as well. Thank you for your feedback and I look forward to hearing your thoughts. Lehafken ( talk) 13:56, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
