getting
him to nurse and offered her a substance to put on her nipples.... IT WAS
CHERRY FLAVORING!!!  The NICU nurse said that they had been putting it on
the
pacifier to get him to take it. >>

>>Clearly, this has also happened in other hospitals, but even if no one
else
had spoken up, why would we doubt Melisa's experience? B/c we wish it wasn't
true?<<
I have been reading every post on this subject and haven't noticed that
anyone is doubting whether this occurred. Melissa ASKED, in her original
post, if anyone had seen this done before. Haven't the responses in the
negative all been in response to her question?
