Dear Jan,
Thanks for comments relative to dads and the need (of someone other than
baby ) to bo feed the baby. You opened a wonderful discussion. Now I have
learned more new ways to approach this all to common concern. As always
your sense of humor and years of observing the human comedy shine forth.
Dear Pat,
The observations of your recent home visit and recounting it for us was very
helpful. The most important tool, of any LC is assessment. Your assessment
of the mother and baby's needs could not have been more important than the
environmental and psychosocial happenings in the mothers household and of
those who will be her support when you are not there.
Thanks for the account of the visit and your reflections post visit. It
would be so easy sometime to cut to the chase and get nothing accomplished
and putoff a beloved family member. You can bet this young mother will draw
upon this experience as she one days moves further along her health career
tract.
You are such an experienced professional and I am happy to collect the
"gems".
It must be true that experienced assessment is one of the things that
separate us from the lower animals.
With kindest regards
Beadie Cambardella RN IBCLC FACCE
