There's a lot of different definitions of that one.
Just had a placement with a m/w who promoted woman-friendly over baby-friendly. Her idea of w-f was to have longer hospital stays, baby in nursery, bottlefed until woman's milk comes in. She theorised that it would give mother a chance to sleep, recover from the birth, and remove the stress of a hungry baby unable to feed.

Just doesn't gel to me.
