Mother’s Day Special: breastfeeding

by

It was Dr Jen’s last show before she moves to Queensland and her new job. Good luck Dr Jen! :)

Today was a Science Friction episode on breastfeeding. What are the world trends and the science? Is it personal choice or public health concern? Are we pushing mums too hard to breast feed given the parallel concerns about depression? What ever happened to wet nurses?

Guest: Dr Lisa Amir, public health scientist, NHMRC Health Professional Research Fellow (La Trobe & Melbourne Universities)
