Breastfeeding Articles and LinksA collection of some of my personal favorite breastfeeding bookmarks
Alarming Trends in Lactation Consulting Read about two trends lactation consultants are experiencing first hand that undermine appropriate breastfeeding support for families. NEW Are Used Breast Pumps a Good Option? Issues to Consider What new mother wouldn’t like to save money on a breast pump? That’s why we are often asked: “Do you have used breast pumps available?” Some mothers have friends or relatives offering to lend them a used pump. Is a used pump a good option? Conscious Sedation and Breastfeeding I wrote this article to explain why weaning a baby from the breast or "pumping and dumping" are not necessary for breastfeeding mothers needing conscious sedation for surgical or diagnostic procedures. Most medications used for sedation are safe for mother and baby and have no effect on milk supply. NEWFinding the Breast Pump That Is Right for You One of the most common questions lactation consultants, breastfeeding educators and childbirth educators get is, "What breast pump would you recommend?" Having worked full and part time and nursed four children, as well as helped many women find a pump that works for them, I've listed the most helpful and comfortable pumps here and categorized them. Induced Lactation and Relactation Are you about to adopt a baby and you want to breastfeed him? Are you a birth mother who wants to rebuild her milk supply? Wonderful! It is not only possible, it is fairly easy and the chances are you will produce a significant amount of milk. NEWEncouraging your Breastfed Baby to take a bottle Practical tips for when and how to introduce your breastfed baby to fed with a bottle The Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine-a worldwide organization of physicians dedicated to the promotion, protection and support of breastfeeding and human lactation, headquartered in Lenexa, Kansas. Can a mother breastfeed when she is ill? From the Michigan Breastfeeding Network Baby

Breastfeeding in Public-La Leche League's article, "Getting Off the Back Room Team". Breastfeeding Links-A long list of links, some are no longer valid, but many are interesting none the less. Bright Future Lactation Resource Center-Linda Smith's site, BFLRC supports the people who support breastfeeding with articles, education and motivation resources for healthcare professionals including doctors, nurses, lactation consultants, peer counselors, peer helpers and others providing parents with infant feeding information. Cabbage Leaves for Treatment & Prevention of Breast Engorgement Many perinatal nurses, lactation specialists and midwives recommend cabbage leaves applied to the breast to relieve pain of engorgement. A review of literature indicates this is a long standing treatment. Although relatively little formal research has been reported, the evidence base is convincing. I use cabbage leaves for moms with engorgement in my private practice and it really does work! The Impact of Formula Discharge Packs on Breastfeeding An article I co-wrote with my online colleague Cindy Curtis, RN, IBCLC. Cindy has also posted it at her website. |
