Marilyn wrote "Yet most babies with mec liquor don't present with MAS. And some (a very few) babies with very normal uncomplicated labours and births do develop MAS. Is it the gasp of a baby in distress (which may happen at any time and be undetected) or just a random gasp that carries the mec deep into the lungs ? Just curious"   I'm curious too.  I haven't read any studies about that.  Maybe it hasn't been done yet, or can't ethically be done?  Does anyone know?  MM
