Breastfeeding helps with MS?

I'm breastfeeding my new baby (she's 9 days old ♥) and I heard that breastfeeding is good for women with MS - is this actually true or just anecdotal? I really don't want to have a relapse! Also (on another note) 17 hrs of labour with just gas and air, I pushed out the baby myself :D
