This talk addresses two ethical issues as they relate to breastfeeding support and milk banking: informed consent and access to care that includes breast milk feeding. Topics include a brief history, definitions of these basic medical ethical concepts, and their relationship to breastfeeding.
Having a child in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is difficult. It is important for every family member to be included. As children and their families read and color this book, they will learn how the NICU, other moms, and local milk banks support breastfeeding and work to make the newest family member grow healthy and strong.
