The listmothers feel compelled to remind you that Lactnet is not a forum for us 
as mothers to seek help with our own problems.  Exceptions to this guideline 
are rare, and will have been discussed with the listmothers *before* posting 
to the list.  Generally it is only in cases where the situation is so unusual that 
there is no expertise readily available, that we approve a post from a 
subscriber seeking help for her own situation.  Note that this allows everyone 
to learn from the case, and makes it less likely that it would be necessary to 
post to the list about that problem in future.

Mothers are generally better served by in-person help than by counting on 
whatever they can find on line, and that is the reason for this part of the 
guidelines.

The listmothers continue to welcome queries *directly to them* from 
subscribers who wish to post about their own breastfeeding problems.  The 
address to the listmothers is [log in to unmask]
