Thanx to all of you for your input.  Unfortunately, the pump is not a concern
to this mom who went to her ped yesterday and was told that it was not
necessary to clip the tongue, that ABM was just as good and she should switch
to the bottle "immediately" because of her sore nipples.  Don't want to put
"guilt" on this mom, do we?  She was not hearing me last night and decided to
do what her doctor said because she and her husband were ABM fed and they
have no problems.  Just wait until they get to be my age (I qualified for
granny LC this year) and have to fight all the health problems that I do,
thanks to S***L**C,evaporated milk,karo syrup, & goat's milk.  This young new
lady ped needs some BF education!!!!!!!!  I told the mom that if I may be of
any help in the future, please let me know--hoping the ABM was not well
tolerated last night!  Glad for this opportunity to vent.
