Ann relayed a story, which included this line:

<< The nurse today was upset because the little one was only nursing for ten
 minutes and that "was NOT enough". >>

Another hot button pushed....and just when was the last time someone said to
the nurse, "I'm sorry, but you've only eaten for 7 minutes.  It doesn't count
unless you eat for 22."  We don't time ANYONE else!  Why this emphasis on
being on the breast for x number of minutes.  And suppose the baby was on the
breast for 20 minutes, but was only drinking for 6 and hanging out for 14.  I
suppose the nurse would have been happy because the baby fulfilled the
requirement...or, would 20 minutes have been too long?
