Tutorial
Li Chin is a 19-year-old woman from Hong Kong who has been in Canada for one year studying Computer Science at McMaster University. She is a known carrier of Hepatitis B, but is otherwise healthy and on no medication. You are a family physician working at Student Health Services at the university. Li came to see you today for a routine prenatal appointment at 28 weeks gestational age. You inquire as to Li's plans for feeding her baby after birth. She is uncertain and has not yet considered this. When you recommend that she breastfeed her baby, she asks why. She doesn’t know anyone who has breastfed. She is uncertain as to whether or not she would be able to do it.
