Guest guest Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 In the community in which I practice, there is a new group who are wanting to take on the role as the center for all things that have to do with childbirth, including breastfeeding. Many of us IBCLCs have been trying to work with them on their efforts, but they feel that breastfeeding is a natural thing and moms should not be " charged " for services. There are about 6 of them who will be taking the CAPPA CLE course in February here. One of the groupies has set this up. We believe that their intent is to disregard the role of the IBCLC in this community and black market their services as the same. How do we go about addressing this? Have any of you had this happen? What did you do? We have really put forth an effort to get to know them and assist them with education etc...however they want no part of us. How do we maintain our professionalism without getting " nasty " ? I would really love to hear your thoughts. Vicki Carlson Oak Island NC **Home recuping from hip surgery and lots of time to think!
