<< I wonder if it would be useful to weigh all the diapers that the baby pees

poops in. I'd love to have some idea of how much peeing is going on in these
kiddos that first 24 hours. I don't know that any of us know how many ounces
of urine and/or meconium are "normal" in the first 24 hours, but it certainly
would be useful to see if the baby is losing a lot of weight based on urine &
stool.
Which, of course, I think they are.

You know..this strikes me as a possible study/research opportunity that
wouldn't be all that difficult, comparing diaper weights of babies whose moms
got iv's to ones whose mom's didn't...controlling for variables of course as
much as possible.
