Denise: Just because the mother said her advisor was a "lactation
consultant" doesn't necessarily mean the person was IBCLC. Remember that
"lactation consultant" is a generic term, not a title. Absolutely anyone
can use it. Maybe when state licensing or state registration becomes a
reality in most states, it might really become a title reserved only for
IBCLCs.
Have mom give you a little more information about her "l.c." advisor.
