Oh, my goodness! My apologies for whatever that was I sent awhile ago!! I was trying to reply to Valerie's post about the mystery weight loss. I think the baby is diuresing (did I just make up a word, too?) and the big weight loss is not loss of body weight but excess water from Mom's intrapartum IV fluids. I'm hoping more experienced LC's will comment.
