Hi, All:  One other situation I have been caught in the midst of on
occasion is a mother who "shops around" and is comparing notes between
LCs.  If I find out, either from the mother herself or the other LC(s) that
this mom has been seen already, I refuse to take her on, unless she is
ready to commit to one LC.  I think this avoids "conflicting" advice and
potential awkwardness between all involved.  Styles of practice can differ
greatly with none being wrong, but that is not necessarily what the mother
will perceive.
