Amen, Heather! And even worse than outdated knowledge are the often
unrecognized, unacknowledged effects of overhydration on latching and the
delayed function of the breast that so many mothers are subjected to in
medical management. Promises of "pie in the sky" don't deliver the
satisfaction expected.

And continued tongue tie ignorance among professionals as well.

Sigh!
