"Lactation consultant guides new mothers" by Cindy Atoji Keene, Globe Correspondent | March 8, 2009

Donna Norris has seen it all as a lactation consultant, from a lesbian couple who both wanted to nurse their baby to a dad who, after sipping a sample of breast milk from a spoon, said it "tasted so sweet."

That's DISGUSTING!!!!

And thy gotta get the gay angle in even here, huh?

**************

Enter the lactation consultant, typically a registered nurse or midwife who has passed a rigorous certification process and is not only trained in anatomy, physiology, counseling, and infant growth and development, but also knows the intricacies of milk synthesis and composition....

Norris was a young, inexperienced pregnant 18-year-old when she picked up the classic book "Nursing Your Baby" by Karen Pryor. It was the late 1970s, and bottle-feeding was all the rage....

Yeah, if I remember correctly, it was heavily-promoted by the plastics-serving, oil-based MSM. Also see: Getting Back to Glass

Norris says a lactation consultant can earn between $50,000 and $100,000, and have employment opportunities in hospitals, public clinics, physician practices, visiting nurse associations, and even employee assistance programs. --more--"

Your health care dollars at work. What's the great mystery? The tit is better than some chemical? I think humans have know that for thousands of years.
