And I don't just mean a grand or wonderful aunt, but a great one.

My neice Terry gave birth to a baby girl, Jordan, yesterday by c-section 
at Del Sol Hospital in El Paso, TX.  Baby was 6 pounds 6 ounces, born on 
time.  There was some worry about iugr, but I think the baby is OK, just 
small.  Terry is not big, and she had heart problems as a infant, and 
open heart surgery...  The baby seems to be nursing fine but has 
problems maintaining body temperature, I told them to do lots of skin to 
skin. 

Anyone on this list from El Paso?  If so, can you email me...

My Sister-In-Law did not breastfeed her kids, she "didn't have enough 
milk."  I don't think she really tried, or got information, she also is 
a smoker, and she was told it was better to fomula feed if she smoked.  
Terry really seems to want to breastfeed and I think I've influenced 
them.  I sure hope she does this.  Terry is a 19 year old single mom, so 
life will be hard enough--breastfeeding can only make it easier.
