I'm just wondering how you decided to become one. What kind of training/education does it require?
I never really gave it a thought pre kids about becoming one, but since, I've often thought about it. I was just wondering what goes into becoming one and other people's reasons for doing so.
Generally they're RNs first. At least, all the ones I've known have been. They've also all been certified by the IBLCE. Edit: Here's a link to the IBLCE's North American website: americas.iblce.org/. It has information on the requirements to become an IBCLC.
