I believe Jan Riordan has already written this research up. I think they
found that IV fluids did NOT have an effect. It was a poster session at
ILCA. Maybe the puffiness we see is a results of other factors in US births
than just the IVs. Do LCs in other countries see puffy, boggy nipples and
areolas on a routine basis?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Pat, seems many moms will say that their nipples did not look like this
"before."
Do you recall; Did Jan's research include pitocin? ...as a factor in fluid
retention.
