Congratulations, Ilene!
It must be wonderful to be such a close witness of a new life circle.
And great, that your dil and son have made decisions that are close to your
heart.
Somehow as mothers, we must have done something right, if our children can
see the value of the natural process!
Warmly,
Marianne Vanderveen IBCLC, Netherlands

>> Subject: Reflux baby
>>
>> Permission to post.
>> I have a patient with a very demanding, fussy, gassy, cannot-put-her-
>> down 8 week old baby who was diagnosed with reflux and on prevacid,
>> which is helping. Baby had a frenotomy at 2 weeks for a type 2 TT but
>> tongue was still tight afterward, still unable to fully lift the tongue.
>> Mom continued to experience sore nipples even after the frenotomy
>> through a nipple shield. A direct latch was even more painful. She
>> declined to persue a second opinion on the tongue because she is so
>> consumed with the baby's care.
>> Baby had slow weight gain in the first few weeks before the frenotomy so
>> mom was pumping and bottle feeding her milk and formula until she caught
>> up her weight. Now baby is thriving, 95% on WHO curve. Mom also had
>> suppressed lactation, due in part to the baby's TT but I suspect
>> potential PCOS, she has tubular breasts, and had an intrauterine
>> insemination to get pregnant.
>> After fenugreek, goats' rue and lots of pumping, mom's supply is up to
>> 24 oz pumped milk/day but baby takes in about 35-40 oz so she was still
>> using formula (Alimentum) to supplement.
>> Pedi GI doc suggested she take a week off breastmilk and just give
>> Alimentum, after which there was worsening of symptoms plus foul
>> smelling stools:-) They are suggesting Neocate now but I think she just
>> needs to go back to breastmilk from the breast and have mom go on an
>> elimination diet. So mom hasn't nursed in a week and she is willing to
>> try without the nipple shield to see if it still hurts. If it does, I
>> will suggest a second opinion for a posterior TT. Once this baby gets
>> to full breast, I suspect mom's supply will fill in accordingly. I just
>> hope we haven't lost our prolactin window, which declines after 2
>> months. This mom is determined to BF.
>> Any suggestions?

>> Subject: torticollis
>>
>> I don't recall ever hearing the word "torticollis" until reading it on
>> Lactnet today. I did however have a baby who "held her head funny." So
>> that's what it was! When I pointed it out to the doctor, he said,
>> "Pffft! She's fine." I took her immediately to a chiropractor, who
>> noticed the problem immediately, showed me where to massage, and the

>> Subject: From Jim Akre's lecture on Gold10
>>
>> If you are not yet registered for the Gold10 conference, you still have
>> time. Here is a summary of the 10 commandments of breastfeeding which
>> Jim
>> Akre presented in his amazing lecture. The problem is with a society
>> which
>> sees artificial feeding as the norm, and does not give the mother enough
>> help to overcome the challenges she faces in the beginning.
>>
>>
>>
>> From Jim Akre's lecture on Gold 10
>> Ten proposals for action Based on the remarks made in my pre-
>> conference
>> presentation, here are ten distinct, yet complementary, proposals for
>> immediate action.
>> 1. We need to stop referring to breastfeeding as 'best feeding' and
>> define
>> it as 'normal feeding'.
>> 2. We need to stop talking about 'the benefits of breastfeeding' and
>> focus
>> instead on 'the risks of not breastfeeding'.
>> 3. We need to publicize breast milk's significance for neurocognitive
>> and
>> visual development.
>> 4. We need to reframe routine artificial feeding for what it is - a
>> momentous deviation from the biological norm for the young of our
>> species.
>> 5. We need to recall that infant formula was originally developed for
>> emergency use; it was never intended for routine consumption.
>> 6. We need to identify infant formula for what it is: an inert
>> paediatric
>> fast food based on the milk of an alien species, and the least-bad
>> alternative to human milk.
>> 7. We need to track systematically, across the life course, artificial
>> feeding's adverse health outcomes for both mothers and children.
>> 8. We need to evaluate the global economic implications - in the short,
>> medium and long term - of child-feeding mode.
>> 9. We need to calculate the amount and value of human milk produced and
>> consumed worldwide while we make certain that human-milk banks become a
>> routine component of healthcare infrastructure everywhere.
>> 10. We need to clarify what breastfeeding costs even as we ensure that
>> every
>> mother can afford to breastfeed.
