7:30–8:30 a.m.: Registration, Breakfast, and Exhibitors
8:30–10:00 a.m.: General Session 1, Room 135
Recognizing When Things Are Heading South: Investigating for Low Milk Production, Lisa Marasco, IBCLC, FILCA
When low milk production concerns present, where do you start? Is it real or perceived? Delayed, secondary, or primary? Which came first, the chicken or the egg? This session walks through the assessment process to determine what the cause of a low milk supply might be, including infant contributions such as tongue-tie. 1.5 L CERPs.
10:00–10:15 a.m.: Break
10:15–11:45 a.m.: General Session 2, Room 135
Is It Her Hormones: Hormonal Imbalances and Insufficient Milk Supply, Lisa Marasco, IBCLC, FILCA
When good management isn’t good enough to improve low milk supply, what else could it be? Hormones play important roles in lactation and when they aren’t working right, lactation may be affected. Conditions such as thyroid dysfunction, diabetes, prolactin problems, and polycystic ovary syndrome affect lactation for some mothers. This session discusses how hormones work, what kinds of things can go wrong, identifying problems, and developing treatment strategies. 1.5 L CERPs.
11:45 a.m.–12:45 p.m.: Lunch, Exhibitors Open
12:45–1:45 p.m.: Breakout Sessions–Pick One Option
Option 1, Room 135AC: What Does the Evidence Say? A Cochrane Review of Oral Galactogogues for Mothers of Full Term Healthy Infants, Lisa Marasco, IBCLC, FILCA
When the topic of galactogogues comes up, a commonly heard refrain is “there is no evidence that galactogogues work…” But that’s not true. The results of a Cochrane review will be presented, along with a discussion of what was learned about such studies in the process. By the end of the session, the participant will be able to list 10 galactogogues that have been studied and discuss the strength of the evidence. 1.0 L CERPs
Option 2, Room 135BD: Digestive Health and Breastfeeding Challenges, Dr. Angela Graper
Breastfeeding can present many challenges to a new mother. Discover how a mother’s digestive health can influence a nursing relationship as well as how the hormones in the postpartum period influence the digestive tract. Learn basic digestive and immune support during the postpartum time to support both mother and baby. 1.0 L CERPs.
Option 3, Room 155: Nursing Stories from Around the Globe, moderated by Vickie Albright, IBCLC
This panel discussion will feature parents who have lived outside the U.S. and who have also nursed a baby. We'll hear personal experiences about how breastfeeding may look different in other parts of the world. (No CE hours)
2:00–3:00 p.m.: Breakout Sessions–Pick One Option
Option 1, Room 135AC: Meeting Clients Where They’re At: Ethical Guidelines When Talking About Complementary Therapies, Lisa Marasco, IBCLC, FILCA
When it comes to complementary and alternative therapies, many lactation consultants are unsure of what they allowed to say and how to conduct this conversation with a client. We will take a look at the applicable ethical concepts, our professional guidelines, the question of evidence, and handling real-life dilemmas that come up. 1.0 E CERPs
Option 2, Room 155: Clinical Lactation Support for Transgender Parents and Families, Anna Brauch, IBCLC
Competent clinical support is crucial to managing lactation and is often difficult to obtain for those in marginalized communities. In this session, we will provide a background of trans-specific lactation issues and a definition for gender dysphoria; look into the methods of managing gender dysphoria that are compatible with breastfeeding/chestfeeding; identify how clinical lactation providers can promote inclusion for transgender parents and families in their practices; and describe methods of inducing and managing lactation that are specific to transgender breastfeeding and chestfeeding parents. 1.0 L CERPs
Option 3, Room 135BD: Supporting Pumping, Christina Forga
Many breastfeeding/chestfeeding parents find themselves separated from their babies in the early weeks and months of their breastfeeding relationship and will need or choose to pump. Good advice from a trusted LLL Leader or lactation professional in regards to pumping can often mean the difference in whether that parent is able to continue their nursing relationship. This session will touch on the more and less common questions of nursing parents who pump and the suggestions that give them the tools to work through challenges. 1.0 L CERPs
3:00–3:15 p.m.: Break, Exhibitors Open
3:15–4:30 p.m.: General Session 3, Room 135
Lactogenic Foods for Milk Production, Lisa Marasco, IBCLC, FILCA
Historically, nutrition has always been a part of the health strategy of traditional cultures. New mothers especially have been offered special foods to ensure good milk production. Western society often views these practices as myths, but is that all they are? This session looks at the role of nutrition in milk production and existing research on certain foods as they relate to lactation. 1.25 L CERPs.
4:30 p.m.: Day Concludes. Turn in CERP/Contact Hour forms and evaluations.
