Hi All

I am an IBCLC at a small private maternity unit in Australia, we have
approx 25 - 30 births a month and are starting to expand. I have been put
in charge of developing our breastfeeding policies.

I would appreciate any advice, examples, copies of existing policies that
might aid us in developing one that will work in the best interests of our
patients.
I'm particularly interested in the ones relating to healthy > 36 week
infants who are sleepy for the first few days.
Should they be given colostrum and when? How often should the mother
express? Is there any evidence to support this? eg if hasn't fed in the
first X hours offer colostrum.

If you prefer not to post to LACTNET you may e-mail me privately at:

Thank you for your help
