Dear Stacie,
Your story touched my heart. Thank you a thousand times for sharing
it---I know it was hard to relive. Your explanation gave me the *aha*
moment regarding this issue! I knew deep-suctioning causes oral
aversion. (*DUH* Why don't those in the care of perinatal women admit
this! Maybe because they'd have to change their *almighty* routine!
ARGH!) But your story made me really *understand* it. LLLL is lucky to
have you---you will be able to explain to moms why their babies react
the way they do, and that it's overcomeable.
Thanks again.

where it's warming and balmy today--go figure!
