Description:
An evidence-based program developed by the renowned Massachusetts Breastfeeding Coalition to help the clinician identify, triage, and manage common breastfeeding problems in the first weeks of life. The application also includes information on medications as well as a link to LactMed, the comprehensive online resource from the National Library of Medicine.
In addition, the application lists many respected resources and their links and phone numbers, where applicable, as well as the WHO/UNICEF Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding (the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative), and the WHO International Code of Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes.
Also available for cell phones and PDAs running Palm OS, from Massachusetts Breastfeeding Coalition, www.massbfc.org.

Another reason all physicians need an iPhone

Thank you, Massachusetts Breastfeeding Coalition! This is a very handy digest of evidence-based advice for managing basic breastfeeding issues. This is a must-have for all pediatricians, family physicians, obstetricians, and nurse-midwives. The only downside is that medications are not reviewed within the app, and the link to LactMed does not work that well on the iPhone. When they update the app with the medications, it will be a must-have for all physicians who treat babies or women of child-bearing age.

This is a very good quick reference. The Massachusetts Breastfeeding Coalition is such a good resource for everyone from an MD to a Nurse, to a nursing mother, to a dietician! Thanks for this App!

Very good basic program

I am a lactation consultant and like to tell my Breastfeeding iPhone usong clients about the program because it has current and accurate information. It is too basic for my use, until the link to Lactmed is improved.
Great App For CLE, CLC, CBE, Doula's and more too!

As a doula I get asked loads of breastfeeding questions and even with years worth of my own nursing experience, I still occasionally need to reference third party sites for answers. This app will make it easier to find the answers I need without having to tell my clients 'I'll get back to you'

A boon for family practice, obstetricians, pediatricians, PAs, NPs, lactation consultants and RNs. Particularly of value are the reference links, i.e. LactMed.

As a nursing studdent, I find this usefull when I have to teach new mother about breastfeeding technique and benefits. It is a good app, simple to use, and the information is quite accurate. On the other hand, I would have like to find so pictures and other visual aids to show mothers : can I hope for an update? Well done!
