Dear Rachel:
    I hear your distress, and share it about this  mother from India.
    Vaishali has sent me the name and two telephone  numbers of an 
organization specializing in this very issue. I have received  authorization to make two 
more home visits; I called her after my last visit,  and she chuckled when I 
asked her if she had thoughts of hurting herself or the  baby. Her 
mother-in-law is there all the time, so that will be a  safeguard.
    Maybe I should post this to the list?
    warmly,
Nikki Lee RN, MS, Mother of 2, IBCLC, CCE
