Jennifer,
 
Two statements -- rather, one is a question:  what is  APPPAH.  Two:  please, 
please send your post to IBLCE.  In fact,  to all of you who are as appalled 
by this travesty, please copy your posts to  IBLCE and to ILCA.  You can send 
it to:  [log in to unmask] (mailto:[log in to unmask]) .  Jennifer, you posted  
most eloquently.....
 
I'm not sure who the ILCA rep to IBLCE is currently, but I  suggest your 
letter be copied to her as well.  Does anyone else know?   Interesting that IBLCE 
doesn't post the names of their Board of Directors on the  website....
 
I'm up for recertification in July.  My 20 years.   Maybe.  I'm seriously 
wondering about this.  I suspect my moms would  be much better served if I was 
not an IBCLC, following the dictates of the  IBLCE.  
 
This "scope of practice" is radically changing my thinking  about whether or 
not being an IBCLC is how I want to spend my sunset years --  worrying about 
whether or not I'm going to be threatened to have my  certification stripped if 
I dare tell a mother that her physician gave her  incorrect information.
