Laurie says,
<<I also was wondering about her LC friend mentioned
in the article and why she didn't pick up on the red flags - or maybe she
did but it was not mentioned that way in the article. I think the LLL
meeting was where they corrected her latch etc.>>
One of the red flags for me was the "LC" telling her that one bottle of
formula a day wouldn't be a problem for the baby. So I went to the IBLCE website
to see if I could find her and see if she is, in fact, an IBCLC. Surprise,
surprise, though I checked all the states around NYC, she wasn't listed.
Perhaps this "LC" simply didn't know HOW to help this mother, because as
Laurie pointed out, there were a LOT of red flags. Nursing 18 hours a day????
Babies do that when they aren't getting enough to eat.....
Major red flag.
