> I am trying to update our policies and protocols for inpatient and outpatient Lactation Services at our hospital. I would like to add something about the use of coconut oil for treatment of sore nipples/yeast. Are any Lactation Consultats suggesting or providing coconut oil to their patients in the hospital setting or outpatient setting?

I have always heard that breastmilk or colostrum is physiologically normal but have recently come across some issues where Drs won’t let babies nurse in case????
