Jack,
I absolutely agree w/ you. I just assumed we would all agree that the mother
would do best to take the baby with her and the next best choice is EBM. From
the post, I also gathered this was not an extended separation. So, I
responded based on the possibility that the mother did not choose to express
her milk (although it would be a whole lot quicker than making almond
milk!---oh vey!).
