Subject: ABM in NBN against hospital policy

Hello All - 
  Learned an interesting lesson from my sister when she had her baby last
year.
  She was on Mag, and the hospital had a policy that no baby could be with
mom on Mag unless mom had visitor with her.  Hospital had strict visiting
hours that ended at 8pm.... Staff RN asked mom if "baby could have an
artificial nipple/pacifier".  My sister, being a first time mom, didn't
understand that this was code for, "Can we feed your baby ABM?" To which she
would certainly have said "No!"  But being tired from a delivery and feeling
icky from Mag, she agreed - and ended up separated for OVER 12 HOURS!!!!!
Baby was formula fed that whole night.  My sister was frantic by morning and
furious when she realized what had happened.  I was furious, but at a day's
drive away, I couldn't do much except encourage my sister to read them the
riot act.
   
  Lesson learned: Teach mom before delivery to REFUSE Artificial nipples,
pacifiers, anything that might enable staff to pacify baby without her
presence.

Hoping to get into mother/baby nursery where couplet care is the goal (in
progress) and breastfeeding is smiled upon....
