>>Greetings to all Lactnetters,
>>I am an ICBLC (since 1997) on Long Island (NY). I work in a hospital
>in
>>post partum so deal mostly with newborns. I was recently presented
>with a
>>problem by a friend.  Mother is nursing baby now 1 year old. Baby
was
>>identified as having multiple food allergies, including all dairy,
>wheat,
>>and oats. Mother wanted to wean but realizes now that this is not
>possible
>>at this time.  Baby recently cut her two top teeth and ever since
>mother
>>has been experiencing increasingly sore nipples. Mother denies any
>history
>>of yeast infection in herself or baby.  Baby has not been biting. I
>thought
>>perhaps baby has altered her sucking pattern and style since her
>teeth came
>>in.  I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions for this mother.
>She is
>>using Masse and Lansinoh creams. I advised mother to pump for a few
>>feedings but baby refuses bottle and does not do well with cup.  Any
>>thoughts/advice for this mother would be gratly appreciated.
>>Sincerely, Christine Foley, RN, BSN, IBCLC
