Geez I almost disagree with Dr Jack. I think a lot of Moms DON'T KNOW their
babies are getting enough until they see the poos and pees. THAT is HOW
they know! I always say 'What goes in must come out, 6 pees and TWO OR MORE
GOOD SIZED poops per day is all you have to worry about'. I think that is
more concrete for many Moms than even the pause of the chin (though since
seeing Dr Jack's conference speech I teach that too). I mean, what if (they
think - and I know I did) the baby pauses/wiggles his ear in front of the
LC but not at home? What if he's just pausing to look at the TV commercial,
not to drink? What if my breast is so big I can't see him pause, or he only
paused once and that means he only got one mouthful of milk? Dr Jack I am
sure you teach them with such confidence that they ARE confident about
pauses. But I think poos are pees are really obvious to absolutely
everyone.....
