Hi all, I have just returned from a fantastic conference in Amarillo, TX done by Dr. Tom Hale (Medications and Mother's Milk) The speakers were amazing and included; Dr. Peter Hartman (Austrailia researcher) Jane Morton Paula Meier Dr. Stephen Buescher (excellent speaker) anti-infective properties of bm Leon Mitoulas - pumping frequency and duration and milk yields Dr. Tom Hale - medications in preterm infants Ching Tat Lai - preterm breastmilk and fortification Donna Ramsay - live ultrasound of sucking mechancis of various infants Jackie Kent - calcium and preterm breastmilk and even more. I highly recommend this conference to all interested in lactation, for both perterm and term infants. There were people from 37 states and 8 countries there! The cost was very reasonable ($300) which included 2 meals daily for 3 days. Medela also had terrific drawings and I won a pump! I expect to attend again next year and I believe that you can find information on it, when it becomes available, at ibreastfeeding.com You might want to sign up your email address to be sure you get a notice. I learned so much, it's going to take awhile for me to absorb it. *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
