Feeling more inspired by this list and lactivism elsewhere and less
inspired by my own department lately, I went to the IBLCE website to check
the requirements for sitting for the exam. Wow, 900 hours of consulting --
how does one do this, particularly as a non-pediatrician physician? What
types of consulting count? How do you record the hours? Are most IBCLCs
willing to take on occasional-and-sporadic interns in terms of a few hours
here and there for shadowing?
On the one hand, I am pleased that the requirements are so vigorous as to
distinguish the certification of IBCLC. On the other, I can't conceive
how to accomplish this over the next year in addition to my other
responsibilities, or even during an anticipated breast surgery fellowship.
I would love advice. Please feel free to contact me off-list.
