<<I'm actually under the impression that I would not be allowed  to pump 
during
the IBCLC exam if I needed to...is this true?  I'm  putting off applying to
sit next year (2008) because I'll have an 8-month  old baby then, and will
definitely need to pump or feed the child...I'd  rather wait until 2009 when
I can concentrate and not be so  uncomfortable.  Does anyone know about 
this?>>

The exam runs from approximately 8 to 11:30 and 1 to 4:30.  Or  thereabouts.  
You can pump just before the exam starts, and then when you  finish in the 
morning you can pump again.  You have 2 1/2 hours of actual  exam time -- most 
people don't need that long -- there are only 100 questions in  the am, and 100 
in the pm.  If you wanted to bring someone to have your  baby with you, you 
could feed just before the exam and then again at lunch, and  then again as 
soon as you were done in the afternoon -- or pump, which ever  works.  Even if 
you are still nursing on average of every two hours, you  can probably go 4 
hours between pumpings.
