What is "RPS"?  Most of the time I can get the abbreviations from context, but not this time.  Although I've been involved in breastfeeding education the longest, many of these acronyms cross over to my other professions and hobbies.  Like ROM, does that mean "range of motion", "rupture of membranes" or "read only memory"?
Seems like it had an Army meaning too.
Thanks for the lesson,
Kerri Bundy in College Station, Texas and still missing Kathy D.
