Subject: [LACTNET] WHO growth charts versus Industry
Nikki discussed WHO growth charts. What countries have started using them?
Would like Lactnet readers to respond and tell us how you like them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear friends,
The WHO charts are not included in the regular health care system here by now, though some individual care providers may use them. I do use them for my little clients and I think some colleagues may as well.
Moms use them a lot online and print them to take to the well baby clinic. We have wonderful breastfeeding information and promotion site (www.borstvoeding.com - not commercial though it does have the .com in it) where moms can go to an online version of the charts ( http://www.borstvoeding.com/groeicurve/ ), give in their child's data and get a nice picture of the curve. They can save it online and print it as well to take to the dr's. I have an account that I use for my little clients, so I have nice electronic charts for every one of them to go into the electronic files.
Warmly,
Gonneke, IBCLC, LLLL in southern Netherlands
Two yrs
ago at ILCA we heard about the study process and they were just out. I would
have thought by now they would have been in place all over the
world.......... It is so sad that it is all about the profit edge and not
health. Thanks so much, Mary Ann RN, IBCLC from central WI
