Jane was told that "Not all babies root."

Karen Z. said,  "A doc who advertises himself as a breast doctor (read:
breast cancerdoctor) told me **to my face** that lactation was an unnatural
state for breasts!"

Linda S. said, "Jody McLaughlin heard from an OB after her talk on upright
position for birth: "Gravity
doesn't work on everyone, you know."

These are just 3 examples of the complete misinformation and absurdity out
there.  Have any others of you had any dumb/crazy/stupid comments like
these?  If so, send them to me or post them.  I would like to print up a
list of these for comic relief.
