An interesting new report was published in the Journal of Women's Health written by Jimi Francis and Darby Dickton, titled "Preventive Health Application to Increase Breastfeeding." This study found that mother/baby couplets seen by an IBCLC on day 3 of life are 2 1/2 times more likely to continue exclusive breastfeeding at 6 weeks of life (when compared to those who had not been seen).
