Dear Wise women,

I have a client that I am seeing (permission to post) with Ehler 
Danlos (hypermobility classification), which is causing her severe 
joint pain and frequent dislocations with the need for bracing.  Her 
rheumatologist and other health professionals do not see any reason 
to discontinue breastfeeding.  Her baby is now 12 weeks and growing well.

Breastfeeding is going well.  We have discussed different holds, 
manners of play, etc. However, she would like to know if there is 
anything else that might help.  She is seeing an occupational 
therapist as well and does make use of splints and braces.

Thanks,
Ruth Berkowitz, IBCLC, Grad. Dip counselling
Melbourne Aust.
