Discuss the role of calcium in formation of calcium oxalate stones.

Question 2

Ms. Jayce, 6 months pregnant with her first child, visits you at the clinic. She wants to bottle-feed her baby; however, some coworkers have told her it is much better to breastfeed. She wants your opinion and has several questions for you to answer.
 
  How long do the experts recommend breastfeeding? I want to go back to work and I don't think I could do that pumping at work.

Answer to Question 1

Recent studies provide no support for the theory that a diet low in calcium can reduce the risk of calcium oxalate stones (renal stones). In fact, higher dietary calcium intake may decrease the incidence of renal stones for most people.

Answer to Question 2

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breast milk for the first 6-12 months of life. Some women are not able to do that and it would be perfectly acceptable for you to breastfeed the child for any time period you desire. A beginning with breast milk would be a great beginning.
