Dear Lactnet Friends: The response to my request for information about skin to skin in the theatre/OR has been fabulous. Thank you everyone. I have cut and pasted relevant statements to put in a document for this anesthesiologist. I've attached a lovely policy from New Zealand and included a beautiful parent education video from Holland. I've listed the cities in Egypt where hospitals are implementing this practice. Lactnet has brought the world's wisdom to support this important change. I feel excited and blessed and very very grateful. warmly, -- Nikki Lee RN, BSN, Mother of 2, MS, IBCLC, CCE, CIMI, ANLC, CKC craniosacral therapy practitioner www.breastfeedingalwaysbest.com *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
