I would like to get a copy of Tom Hale's book that you all refer to
with such enthusiasm - what is the title?  And, are there any other
"listserv" groups that anyone knows of on topics like childbirth education,
parenting, etc.
BTW, I am the mother of a 13 year old multiply impaired son who, among other
things, has facial paralysis and could not suck.  I cup fed him EBM, even
when that was not the "thing to do" - 13 years ago.  If anyone has clients
of special needs kids - I would be happy to communicate with them -
sometimes knowing someone else has "survived" this difficult start is helpful!!
