Unmedicated delivery, no stitches, he was placed on her chest and nursed shortly after. After a bath, again returned for skin to skin care, nursed frequently. We noticed a tight frenulum preventing tongue extension and lifting although he was getting lots of colostrum. ENT snipped the frenulum and he nursed shortly after. By the time he was 24 hours old his stools were already transitional, and we were seeing better tongue movement. It was exciting to see what can happen if we support the "natural" course of events. *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
