Breastfeed 1.1.2: Free Breastfeeding Software for Your Handheld Device
The Massachusetts Breastfeeding Coalition has developed Breastfeed 1.1.2,
a reference for supporting breastfeeding mothers.
Our Breastfeeding Program is now available for both Palm OS and Pocket PC PDA.
We have a stand-alone version that can run on all Palm OS PDAs. We also have a version that
can be used on any Palm OS PDA, Pocket PC PDA, or Windows laptop/desktop computer, but requires
the iSiloTM document reader.
