Topic: Pitfalls in Infant Feeding Practices After Starting Solids - [View Abstract]
Topic: When Sadness Is Not the Symptom: Clinical Approaches for Breastfeeding Mothers with Postpartum Depression - [View Abstract]
1. Describe recent updates about galactocele, particularly the giant ones.
2. Explain the relationship between tongue tie and its impact on the breastfeeding process.
3. Describe the comprehensive treatment for tongue tie's health consequences, including problems
requiring surgery.
We report the case of a 36-year-old breastfeeding mother who presented with a giant galactocele, a painless lump in the left breast that grew rapidly over 18 days. It is theorized that inadequate breast emptying caused by the baby's tongue tie might have contributed to the galactocele development in the mother. In general, surgical drainage is required to resolve a galactocele, yet the procedure makes it difficult to maintain breastfeeding. In this case, the baby's latch was poor due to ankyloglossia. Inpatient care was coordinated amongst a surgeon, a pediatrician, and lactation specialists (IBCLC). This session will describe the care provided to this dyad which allowed them to continue breastfeeding despite undergoing multiple procedures.

Topic: Assessment and Management of Mastitis - [View Abstract]
Topic: Getting Milk Production off to a Good Start - [View Abstract]
Topic: Management of Chronic Breast Pain: Holistic Approach - [View Abstract]
Topic: The Art and the Science: A Critical Look at the Physiology and Management of Mastitis - [View Abstract]
1. Explain the clinical definition and management of acute mastitis.
2. Describe two of the proposed definitions for other types of mastitis.
3. Analyze two current studies on mastitis spectrum physiology and management.
Mastitis has been occurring for as long as breastfeeding itself. It is a very common difficulty in nursing women. For many decades, its diagnosis and management were considered to be straightforward. However, in the last decade new concepts have been put forward, such as dysbiosis, subacute mastitis, and the concept of the mastitis spectrum. In this talk, we will take a look at the scientific evidence (or lack thereof) for these terms and discuss their impact on day to day clinical management.

Topic: Getting a Better Grip on Prolactin - [View Abstract]
Topic: Recognizing When Things Are Heading South - [View Abstract]
Topic: The Mysterious Milk Ejection Reflex - [View Abstract]
1. Explain the difference between congenital and acquired mammary hypoplasia.
2. List at least 4 potential risk factors/markers for mammary hypoplasia.
3. Describe the 5-point strategy for addressing poor lactation due to suspected mammary hypoplasia.
Insufficient milk output has many causes; one of the least understood is mammary hypoplasia, under and/or abnormal development of the lactating tissue. In some cases the etiology appears to be genetically predetermined, while in others it is acquired due to environmental, hormonal or other insults prior to or during critical windows of development. It is important to differentiate these causes and their risk markers from incomplete breast changes during pregnancy due to transient external factors that may not repeat during another lactation cycle. This information, along with an understanding of the parent’s infant feeding goals, life situation and emotions, will assist the lactation clinician in developing a supportive and optimized care plan strategy.
