I have permission to post this story from the mom. This happened in
Vermont (Kathleen - the pregnant mom I tried to send to you who was
concerned about being able to BF this time around). Have any thoughts
for her?? Please send them directly to her as well as the list. Let
her know your a LACTNET person, OK? Thanks.
