Hello!
     I am an RN working on becoming a lactation consultant and am
new to lactnet.  I am looking forward to receiving and sharing
information with all of you.
     Victoria, last month, my 16 month old son had a bilateral inguinal
hernia repair done.  a pamphlet I received from the anesthesia
department encouraged parents to offer clear liquids to their child up
to 4 hours prior to surgery and breastmilk up to 2-3 hours prior to
surgery.
