Nikki:  Tongue-in-cheek.  What happened to the TRUE questions?  I have a
few more:  1.  Epidurals do not have any effects on breastfeeding.
           2.  Babies belong in the nursery at night so mom can get sleep.
           3.  A nursing mom cannot drink soda because it will give
baby gas.
           4.  Babies must consume at least 1 oz. milk beginning at birth
or they run a real risk of becoming severely dehydrated.
           5.  All breastfeeding mothers need to pump so they know how much
milk they have.
           6.  Formula is and always has been a safe alternative for
breastmilk.
           7.  Circumcisions have no effect on baby's ability to breastfeed.
           8.  How does a baby platypus nurse? Actual question on a post-
test for staff)
           9.  Parents should keep their baby bundled at all times to avoid
cold stress in the baby.
Could be here all day doing this, but back to work I must go.
