I know....I seem to attract it, somehow!

I know.....it's 'cos  foremilk is milk that hasn't been completely 
made yet... This is why feeding too often is so dangerous.

She does actually use the word 'dangerous'.

There was, apparently, so much of a protest from the viewers that 
they brought her on to the show the next week, this time to answer

I'm afraid that while warm and lovely, and sharing correct 
information about a baby's normal needs,  the lactation consultant 
brought in as 'the other side' has clearly decided not to give the 
'expert' too hard a time of it.  This might be the right approach, I 
am not sure.

Irish colleagues on Lactet: has Tizzie Hall 'baby expert' made any impact?
