Client had baby 7 weeks ago. First visit (day 2) I noticed PTT. Midwives
didn't believe me. Trauma to nipples and lots of blood to the pint they
took her to ER to check baby over). On week 4, they made consult with
paediatrician. Saw him today. He told the mom baby didn't have one, to come
back next week to see if latch is better (I've seen her weekly - can only
nurse with a shield), to push baby into breast (darn "bullseye latch). If
no improvement (how can that latch be an improvement????!!!) he will send
her to a paediatrician 40 minutes away for a 2nd opinion.

Oh man. Poor mom. She's deciding what she wants to do now. I might just
take her to Dr. Newman's.

Vent over. Back to your normal lives. Have a GREAT weekend :-)
