was telling me of some things they learned about the pump from the many doctors they talked to...

they are west indian and were VERY adamant about NOT using it at all. one thing they were told is that the pump will not allow the breast to CONTINUE to produce milk as does a baby. studies shown (and this is from teh doctors' mouths they visited and asked) said that there is a significant difference between the amount of milk produced over time from suckling vs. pumping. i don't think we need to go into the natural argument as to the impact of such a change. if the breast stops producing milk sooner with the pump than with a REAL baby... then the end user (the baby) will certainly be affected...as other studies showed. the ddoctors said there are real good alternatives to breast milk that try to mimic the real thing...but nothing is better than a NATURAL child suckling a NATURAL breast.
