>How can hospitals have a lower 'acceptable' level of blood sugars when
there is no consensus on what constitutes the norm...especiallty when such
routine interference results in supplementing?<
Yeah, Heather, and how can practitioners be intervening on the basis of the
amount of stooling when the consensus of Lactnet is that there is no
standard and we don't even have a unit of measurement? And how can health
visitors in the UK be harrassing and harrying women because their babies are
not thriving, when they do not follow adequate practice for
weighing/monitoring and have no defensible standards (aside from the
question of whether the standard should be used for the individual). And
how come -- well, supply your own imponderable question here.
