I love this wording..."right brain enhancement". I just tell mothers their  
brains are functioning in more right-brained mode, whereas before they may have 
 been more left-brained. Their brains are functioning beautifully, just  
differently based on what the new mother/baby situation needs. I also ask them  to 
close their eyes and feel what a good latch feels like rather than just  
looking all the time, building what I call "body knowledge". I guess I  missed the 
point when the subject line changed from something about cognitive  deficits 
to right brain enhancement. I am always sad when subject lines shift  because 
it means when people search the archives, they will not get the thread  all 
the way through and miss out.
 
Peace,
Judy
