Hello everyone,
        A Mum phone me to say that she had been breastfeeding for 3 months.
She tells me that her hair is falling out in bunches - do any of you have
any suggestion as to why this could be happening and what can she do about
it?
        As promised I said I would keep you posted re the fiasco about the
wrong baby being put to the breast.   The hospital held a disciplinary and
we were both given a written warning.(on our files for 6 months)   I could
not attend the hearing as both my hubby and I have cerebral malaria (the
last time I had it my son Lorne fed right through it - used to climb up on
the bed a help himself!)   Thanks once again for the incredible support from
you all - it really helped.
      At the moment I have a Paed whipping my breastfed babies off the
breast because they have "Lactose Intolerance" - in fact the clinic sister
are doing the same now!   Any advice?   (I know what I'd like to do!)
