Gretchen Could she get in touch with Tom Hale? He has a registry for this sort of thing and I would think would love to have data on this situation. We have this info in the archives. Also LLL has info on this situation and it is ok to bf. Sounds like the mother needs more proof, so I would have the milk tested and hopefully get the info published. Remember even IF silicone is in the milk, will it get ABSORBED by the baby and will it hurt anything? Laurie Wheeler, RN, MN, IBCLC Violet Louisiana, s.e.
