Abstract
Doctors can exert a strong influence on the success of breastfeeding, from the period immediately preceding birth to the first months of life. The Authors provide a list of common medical interferences with breastfeeding, focusing on some of the less obvious, such as sedatives given to mother prior to delivery, inadequate thermal protection in the delivery room, use of topic ointments for the prevention and the treatment of sore nipples and lack of appropriate training in principles and practice of breastfeeding.
