I work for a hospital in the hospice program. They just spent millions on this Women and children's wing. The lactation center is NEVER open, no number on the door to call-- I have gone by 3 x's in the last month. Today I go by hoping to get support and a new part for my pump. Ha! I ask about supply ( I pump 12oz a day) baby is 6 mo and gaining, meeting milestones etc. Still I get a little weird about supply-- I wish I had more. I tell her I am taking Fenugreek- LC said that it can cause problems with insulin for baby and mom so I should stop taking it. She looked askance when I said I was not supplementing or taking REglan (sp?) and did not plan on adding rice cereal. She said that the baby would not get enough iron and I needed to talk to my pediatrician. ARGH!!! Sometimes I don't want to talk to anyone about bFing beyond infancy. LC's are just like therapists I guess, good ones and bad ones. and they did not have a part for the pump. GRRRR
