Janice:  Is there some documentation out there that backs up the theory 
that babies are being born "overhydrated" due to mom's IV fluid overload 
during labor/delivery?  I have been hearing this for awhile and am not 
aware that there is research out there.  I would sure appreciate references 
if they exist, as this is a HUGE problem in our hospital.
