Hi out there!
I am a novice at the internet and also have a toddler "helping" me to send
this message, so hopefully this will get through. I am an RN with a
background in Neonatal ICU and post partum care - but this was ten years
ago. Since then I have had four outragiously wonderful children. (Breast
fed of course)I have been lucky enough to be a stay at home mom since then.
I used to teach mothers how to breast fead on Post Partum - and now cringe
at how little I really knew. I am itching at the chance to get back and do
some real hands on teaching. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! I
need to know about any good resources for lactation consultants, and how to
go about certification etc. Do you recommend getting started through LLL?
Since this is the first place I have looked for info, anything would be
helful. I hope I can follow through with this and become an even stronger
advocate for breast feading. You may respond to me directly at:
