<<  I think the nurses at this hospital are all on major
 power-trips about who the baby belongs to.  I think many of them went into
 this specialty because they like holding babies, feeding babies, and
 generally acting like only they know how to care for a newborn and the
 mothers can't possible do it right.  Given this attitude, it's amazing that
 they let mothers take the babies home with them. >>

Dr. Frued told us this last summer that he thinks this is all related to
potty training.  That this type of nurse experienced great conflict with Mom
during the process, learned to withhold the "gift" from her in order to gain
power.  In their adult lives they are still withholding, and we know what
that makes them full of.
