In this video, the baby is unhappy before the procedure has commenced and I feel that is why the procedure in this video appears more traumatic than usual. I am a General Practitioner and Lactation Consultant and I perform several lingual frenotomies in my rooms each week. I can reassure you that the procedure is quick and non traumatic to witness. It is important to have the baby calm before starting and to get the baby to the breast straight after the procedure.

Subject: lack of a medical speciality for the breast
I recall reading somewhere about the lack of a medical specialty for the breast (in contrast to other body organs). I can't recall where I read about this. Can anyone help me out??
Thanks

Subject: new study on breastfeeding and obesity
The title of this article is worth noting. "Effects of **PROMOTING**
Longer-term and Exclusive Breastfeeding on Adiposity and Insulin-like
Growth Factor-I at Age 11.5 Years". It is not an article about
breastfeeding, but about breastfeeding promotion.
The authors set out to examine whether there was a relationship
between *an initiative to PROMOTE breastfeeding in maternity units*,
and the prevalences of adiposity and insulin-like growth factor-I
among the 11 year old children born in the areas where this promotion
took place. Nearly one in five of the children in the original data
set had been lost to follow-up in the intervening years, so the
conclusions are based on the roughly 80% the researchers were able to
contact.
When the breastfeeding promotional campaign at the outset only
succeeded in raising rates and duration of exclusive breastfeeding
from 'dismal' to 'less dismal', it is no surprise that they did not
find an effect in the population years later based on which group the
child's mother's hospital had been randomized to.
In such a study, it would be interesting, though not conclusive
statistically, to know the individual breastfeeding histories of all
the children, and see whether there were detectible differences in the
outcome variables based on actual duration of any, and exclusive,
breastfeeding. Many retrospective, observational studies are done
precisely this way, and are frought with various sources of bias of
their own.
The authors make apparent in their choice of title for the article
that they are not examining whether breastfeeding per se has an effect
on the outcome variables - they are examining whether PROMOTING
breastfeeding in maternity units affects adiposity etc in the
offspring more than a decade later. That distinction is too
complicated for mass media to notice, and certainly not in the
interest of the kind of spin agencies commissioned by the food
industry to get the story out there for as much mileage as they dare.

Subject: Birth control with IGT
Vasectomies have their own set of unhappy side effects. What about one of the really precise natural planning methods, like the one using a monitor (Marquette?) or closely supervised (
Creighton) combined with a barrier for extra insurance?

Thanks for the reminder, Karleen - no I am not connected in any way to the conf organization. I had seen other notices about group bookings so I thought the notice would be okay. But your clarification of what would be okay and what wouldn't was very helpful. Appreciated!

Karleen I think it may have come from Jay Gordon? I, too, would like to
confirm the source.

Subject: lumpy breasts
Hi All,
Permission from mother to post this query:
Mom is 31 years old currently nursing her 9 month old daughter four times per day. She had an enjoyable experience nursing her first child (who is now almost three years old), and is having an uneventful, again enjoyable time breastfeeding now. Her question has to do with periodic detection of lumps in her breasts. We have determined they aren't plugged ducts. She visited her PCP in January, 2013 for a recurring lump under her left arm (armpit), ultrasound determined it was a lymph node. Her physician was not concerned. Mom has detected (always by manual self-exam) movable lumps in her breasts since her college days (about 10 years ago) and was told she has "fibrous breasts" (mom's quote/description). In the past two months she has done her monthly self exam and detected lumps that feel "different" than the previous. Her description, "they are smaller, like the head of a pin, more solid, not like the moveable pockets I've felt before." She reports no
changes in skin appearance, nipple appearance, discharge (other than milk, and that looks like it always has), and no breast refusal. No history of mastitis, never had a bleb. She called into our hospital's Lactation Line wondering if this came under the classification of "normal breast changes during breastfeeding." She is not in pain. She is just curious, and also admitted that since she's been pregnant and breastfeeding for the past three years, her awareness of her body has changed, where she feels she may be over-worrying. I did not feel comfortable telling her she was probably fine, but offered to present her to the LactNet for discussion. Any information would be deeply appreciated, both for her peace of mind, and for my continuing education.
Thank you!
Leslie Cree

Subject: Re: lumpy breasts
with this sort of mom I prefer to err on the side of caution. She needs
breast exam (mammo, ultra sound, digital, whatever) Now, not later. Better
safe than sorry and problems in pg and lactating women usually come up later
because no one looked earlier when mom first mentioned a change :-( Pat in

HI there,
I'm a LLLL from California. I just watched this video..the baby was really
freaked out. It was my understanding that frenotomies weren't supposed to be
that traumatic to the baby - reading about it in Womanly Art, for instance, it
says "a cry from being held still, a drop or two of blood..." Is this video a
pretty typical of the procedure? TIA.
