This intensive course enables participants to provide accurate, current and consistent information about breastfeeding and lactation to expectant and new families.

All areas of the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners exam grid are included, and the course content is based on current scientific research as it applies to “best practice” issues in the clinical setting.

This course fulfills the theoretical hours for IBLCE exam eligibility, in addition to providing a great review for IBCLCs who are recertifying by CERPs or exam.

Goal
By viewing multiple clinical slides and working through real
case scenarios, participants will be able to employ clinical
strategies to help breastfed infants with conditions that often
are unrecognized, untreated, or treated incorrectly.

Objectives
* Recognize how subtle or unusual signs and symptoms can obscure the diagnosis of common clinical conditions in breastfed infants.
* Examine common conditions having signs or symptoms that mimic other common conditions in breastfed infants.
