I for one am really looking forward to seeing it.  The latest  "wrinkle" in 
my neck of the woods is "threatening" moms that if the baby doesn't  breastfeed 
in x period of time they will have to give formula to prevent the  blood 
sugar from going down.  Mind you, they haven't even DONE a  chemstrip....but the 
baby is over 8 pounds, therefore the blood sugar will go  down if the mother 
doesn't nurse every three hours on the dot.
 
Very frustrating.
