Dear group,

I have a friend who has asked me to look into any information you might
have about low blood sugar in a newborn and mild seizure activity. We
have done a web search and found some details on medscape, but I was
looking for personal experience and advice.

Mother had c-section, baby weighed 9 pounds and has been transferred out
of the hospital where the mother remains.

One site recommended at least 5 breastfeedings in the first 24 hours,
which will be difficult to accomplish under these circumstances.

Thanks for any info you may have,
Wendy
