Lactation Consulting
The bottom line is that I'm still working on it...
There isn't a program anytime soon in Colorado, so I'm looking into other States and venues. As a midwife it's something I do a lot of anyhow, but for periods of time like we are in now, it would be a lot easier to work here as a Lactation Consultant than it would be to work as a midwife. Midwifery here is pretty entrepreneurial, so in less than a year it would be a bit difficult to begin a practice. However, LCs work often from clinics or hospitals (not saying that anyone is currently hiring), so (in theory) it would be easier to work in the future. Also, I'm hoping that it will improve my skills in this area and provide me with more resources.
So, in the meantime, please pray that I will figure out what is going to work best for us! Thanks!
