[ad_1] Earlier this month, The Washington Post ran a headline story about a Virginia judge who ordered a mother to stop nursing her four-month-old infant daughter so that the father, who abandoned the mother right before the child’s birth, could have visitation four days a week at his home and soon be awarded overnights and weekends. The judge gave the mother the option of expressing her milk when she sent her baby on liberal visitation to the father. Anyone who has breastfed knows that once the baby stops nursing, even temporarily, the mother’s milk production eventually slows down until it ceases altogether.…
