demonstrate proof, as much as is possible, assure and reassure, explaining
as
concisely as possible, about what I consistently tell new moms is there:
"Colostrum Breastmilk".
This is the reason I hear most as to why the baby was given aim during the
first 2 days of life.
With my last birth, my nurse midwife actually hand squirted some milk out of
my breast right in front of the neonatologist to show that I did indeed have
milk to feed my big baby (8lb12oz). I do wonder what if nothing had came
out---would that have made the case for supplementation in his mind?
