Hi, My name is Jo Mihalik, RN, (new)IBCLC I work in a hospital in Nashville, TN. and am amazed at the similarity of problems and challenges of what I see at work and what comes across my screen when I am on Lactnet. As far as the latex allergies, I do know of a girl that I work with who had allergic reactions to latex gloves that she wore at work, and she had to come into the emergency room with a reaction to a latex condom. Needless to say, her husband proceeded to have something "done." I really love Lactnet!
