Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be setting lactnet no mail as I
get ready to leave for a 3 week trip to Italy with my 3 daughters. Hope to
join everyone when I get back.
Regarding the post about the peer counselor who is leaving WIC and starting a
practice on her own in a new location....
A Peer Counselor is a peer counselor no matter where she works. There are many
peer counselors who work for hospitals or churches or clinics. Working at WIC
doesn't define them. As long as this person understands her limits, and refers
when she's over her head, I don't see a problem with her helping moms with breastfeeding.
