Bumpology - science of pregnancy and breastfeeding

[Hathor]

This is interesting -- the New Scientist column on pregnancy and breastfeeding.
www.newscientist.com/topic/bumpology

That's good news Finally, somebody will shed more light on what is so important and so still unclear: is coffee harmful to fetus, how many years to breastfeed, is nipple cream harfmul to baby..

Sometimes I feel that science has answers to question about MilkyWay or Nano, but still can't answer unsure about these...I am lost

It's an interesting column, I hope it continues after the journalist in question has her kid.

JS - you can try looking up such questions on the Cochrane reviews. They have a massive database covering the full range of medical complaints and conditions, including lots of pregnancy/child care related stuff too.
Everything is written by scientists and medics for the general public and they basically summarise all the published research studies that have been done in a particular field in order to come up with (more or less) definitive answers.

It's free to view the summaries and is a very welcome source of information to counteract the usual scare stories whether or not chocolate causes or cures cancer etc etc...
