Esther and others,
thank you for sharing your stories. The obvious pain with which people
are sharing WRT this issue (from both the nurse and mother's POV) adds
weight to my conviction that mothers and their new babies should be
considered a dyad - maybe they should cut the umbilical cord when the
child can ask for it? :-^
>Maybe that would work better to
>counter " You are tired dear, you need your rest!"
From the sample of this list, it seems we should be replacing that with
"You are tired dear, here, cuddle your baby and have a rest!"
