We are working on a policy re: substance use and our lactation staff has gotten a lot of push back from Pediatricians lately re: THC positive moms.  We wanted to include teach mom "how to establish and maintain her milk supply" since MD's are insisting these women have to be told to formula feed.  They are balking at pumping and dumping until mom tests negative; because they don't want to have to follow up on that or be responsible for moms that have tested positive exposing their babies to THC via breast-milk. 
Does anyone have any neonatal or postpartum policies they are willing to share regarding mom's testing positive for THC?
How about evidence based articles I can share with these physicians?
