[quote=Anonymous]I'm looking for a lactation consultant that can diagnose subtle forms of tongue tie. I read that it is often difficult to diagnose properly and some pediatricians or lactation consultants miss the less obvious forms if tongue tie. I'm also looking for a lactation consultant that can show me how to use a supplemental nursing system. I am suffering from low milk supply and have tied pumping but my pump yields are really low (1 to 2 ml) even though I've even pumping for two weeks. I saw a lactation consultant twice and she seems at loss of how to help me. She recommended compressions while breastfeeding, supplementing with formula and pumping on each side after feeding. Been doing that for two weeks and the pumping doesn't really give me any milk. Lactation consultant just told me there is nothing that she can do to help me and that I should just stop pumping and continue supplementing with formula. Baby doesn't have any latch issues and is fine switching from breast to bottle. However I'm reading that babies often an switch easily in the beginning but then they start having problems later on[/quote]
