Dear Lactneters,
I am interested in any information your would have on intrathecals. We
are a small hospital that is trying to keep in line with the market. We
have been fortunate to not have epidurals as an option, but now will
soon introduce the intrathecal.
I am especially interestd in the effects on the nursing baby. I help
teach childbirth classes, and we have always been open to our mom's
about the advantages of her being in control of what goes on with her in
labor. We try to have mom's move around as much as they can and use
other forms of pain control.
What is the effect on the nursing baby? Are they a better option than
the others out there?
Thankyou for all your help.
Kathy
