In trying to word things with the norm as the standard, maybe we shouldn't
be talking about this intervention as being delayed if it isn't done right
away, but as "rushed" or done prematurely if done in the first week
Excellent point, Winnie!! If it is going to be done -- it should be done
later rather than sooner.... The less intervention to the baby right after
birth, the better.
Y'know, before we do anything to a baby, we should ask ourselves, "would
this be done in a normal home birth?"
And after one of Jennifer's posts, I think what every mom needs is a
lactation midwife....which just might get us away from the medical model of
breastfeeding. Though given how my hospital (unfortunately) views midwives,
well.....I'm not sure that would fly.
