breastfeeding/lactation training?

[Geniebelle]

(also posting in OBGYN forum)
I'm just starting out but am already interested in OBGYN and ped. I figured breastfeeding/lactation would be big parts of both but have been told recently that it isn't. This doesn't make sense to me. Can anyone correct them for me or explain? Is there an elective (for either) that would invole breastfeeding/lactation if I do go into OB/ped?
