I have to chuckle over this thread because in the last week, two of the ladies who were in a recent breastfeeding class (which I taught, and generally teach the same information, the same way) had their babies. One did well, one did not so well, but does have good potential. Funny how two people in the same room heard different things or heard them a different way. My colleague and co-worker wisely pointed out to me that it is very interesting as to why and how that happens. (and who knows that? ;-)) We see the same thing when women come in to have their baby. "Oh, I've taken a class" and they think they know what to do. But sometimes the outcome, and the path the body takes, diverges a bit from what was learned (or absorbed?) in class. Food for thought? No recipe for success?
