I know this may not be an appropriate post - but I need to share!! I work as an LC, Childbirth Educator, staff nurse (when the unit is busy) at a hospital that does about 1400 births/year. Yesterday, we had an emergency C/S, second baby, prolapsed cord. Very scary, I spent the waiting time with dad.....great outcome - healthy 10# 5oz. boy - he was greeted by his 3 year old brother..... When I visited later, after mom was awake, I asked if she was planning to BF - she said no, her first child had had lots of allergies and she was going to go directly to Nutramagen. What a great opening for me!! I told her about the advantages of BF and we put the baby to breast - where he latched on and nursed very happily for 1/2 hour!! Mom and Dad were both thrilled - they all had that great falling in love look! I know this is not that unusual and all of you work with families everyday (and so do I), but this one felt especially wonderful and I needed to tell someone who understands!! Thanks for listening............. Dianne Kemp
