get zz Hi I have been a LLL leader for 21 years. My children are now 20 and 23. I was at the LLLI conference in Chicago which I enjoyed very much. I am taking the IBCLC exam next Mon. and I'm very nervous. I haven't been going to meetings much for the lasst 10 years. I am particularly worried about the slide part. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions for me? I did run across some things in Ruth Lawrence that concerned/ confused me. I would appreciate it ifanyone could answer. 1- She categorically states that breastmilk is inadequate if unsupplemented beyond 6 months. I need a good reference for this. At the convention there was a session that addressed this and much discussion but I don't see a reference in my notes. 2 - Lawrence also says that the jacknife procedure for waking a sleepy baby is dangerous - why / any proof? 3 - Barbara Heiser's nipple sandwich (LLLI answer book) involves forming and tilting the nipple. Lawrence says a nipple tilted up will be sore on the bottom. Comments? Actually there will be times when I can answer questions not just ask them (I hope). My husband whose account I use) is a scientific information specialist with much Medline experience - email directly for his introductory info. Sarah
