Oh, but Evi, aren't we all fanatics who ignore good medical advice given by good caring doctors and nurses?

  Subject: [IBCLC_Israel] NY Times - article about doulas, with mention of IBCLCs


  http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/02/fashion/02doula.html?ref=fashion&pagewanted=all


  Neither profession show in a good light, no feedback to the article is available.
  Instances quoted all seem to be people acting outside of their scope of practice.
  But worth reading just to know that this kind of info is out there.


  from the middle of the article:

  When 33-year-old Melissa Malka’s twins were in the neonatal intensive-care unit after being delivered at 33 weeks, a lactation consultant urged her to have tubes delivering formula through her babies’ noses removed in favor of an intravenous feed to deliver nutrients, against the advice of her neonatologist. Intravenous feeds carry a high risk of infection for premature babies, but some lactation consultants fear that babies will develop a taste for formula and then reject breast milk. 


  The above seems to be more like the efforts of the 'anti' forces in our world.
