Article entitled "Kid's Symptoms you should never ignore"
Don't know if I can just transcribe it. Talking about infrequent
urination. A mom who is breastfeeding has a baby who only wants to
sleep and never needed diaper changed. Mom took to the ER and baby was
dehydrated and close to shock, organ failure and brain damage.
They go on to list signs of dehydration and talk about counting wet
diapers (nothing about stools - and they suggst 6-12 wet!)
No discussion about proper latch, benefits of breastfeeding , weight
gain or lactation consultants! UGH!

I believe they are on the web, too, but since my email is web-based I
can't look it up.
