<< Today a nurse walked in as I was working with a mother to
 give the depro shot,   I asked, Did your doc talk to you about the
 possible side effects regarding milk supply?  Yes, she said it was OK.  I
 said that the manufacturer recommends that it be given 6 weeks PP.  She
 declined the shot!  Yeah, one scrimmage won...

Dear Jane, by far I am sure that you are not alone!  While visiting a group
mother at her request for help at a local hospital the same thing happened!
This nurse could see that I was not going to back down!  She left and came
back with the package insert and she did read it , and then backed down! This
also happened to be the instructor for student nurses, and was a lesson for
the two students too!
The mother then proceeded to explain after our meeting some weeks later,
how thankful she was for a knowledgable and supportive person looking out for
her and her baby!
