I for one am really looking forward to seeing it. The latest "wrinkle" in
my neck of the woods is "threatening" moms that if the baby doesn't breastfeed
in x period of time they will have to give formula to prevent the blood
sugar from going down. Mind you, they haven't even DONE a chemstrip....but the
baby is over 8 pounds, therefore the blood sugar will go down if the mother
doesn't nurse every three hours on the dot.
Very frustrating.
