Hey there,

Before you get angry, you might want to verify what the physician said.  And
perhaps plot the baby on the WHO curves.  And then if this was indeed what
the physician said, use this as an opportunity to educate the physician
about the curves and on oversupply, which this mom/baby pair probably have
going on.

This might also be a good time remind mom that we are all just "the hired
help" and that maternal intuition is a powerful thing that should not be
ignored.  The advice of the others whom she has hired to help her, if not in
line with her thoughts about her feeding experience, could easily be ignored.
