I have a good breastfeeding story to tell too - I went to work in a
maternity ward when my son was 2 - 3 years old (can't exactly remember). My
husband rang me at work, distraught, to say that Richard was fretting for me
and when he put Richard on the phone, he said " Mummy I want some booby". I
said " But darling I have to look after the babies". To which he replied"
Why don't you give them some panadol and come home..........."
Love those memories
Helen

Denise - are there any links to this story? I have tried searching without
success .
Barb - love the breastfeeding story -oh to be a fly on the wall later. Go
Girl Guan, get that mummy organised and her bra on properly!
Years ago I was minding a friend's child while she took her new baby (
adopted from Haiti) to a Dr. While there, baby grizzled and as this was
her first adopted tiny bub, she said she was thinking 'what would Pinky
do?' ( I had a baby a few months older at the time). Of course, the
obvious came to mind so she whipped up her top and popped her baby onto to
her very white breast. We still joke about that poor Drs surprise - he
actually stopped mid sentence and gave an audible gasp.

The accompanying headlines and article were blaming co-sleeping and
warning everyone off it!
The Deputy coroner of WA was reported as saying it has inspired here to
look into recent SIDS case for evdience of overlaying which has been the
cause of this!
Despite the reporting the baby having fallen off the couch and not found
for sometime till the mother woke and then put in his cot!!
All a little susprect but the headlines and by lines warning of the
dangers of Co-sleeping!!

Gloria, as indicated below, couch sleeping is very dangerous...and the
woman
was asleep on the couch. I heard her say that the baby was between the
back
of the couch and her.. also she must have turned over at some time as
she
had her back to the baby. She put the baby back in the cot and 'found
it' as
she was too frightened to say she had fallen asleep and suffocated it.
It
has been blamed on extreme fatigue of new mothers and co-sleeping. Big
hoo-ha. MM
Whenever one hears of a co sleeping death, the question needs to be
asked
"Was the adult medicated or drunk?" GL
SIDS figures show that falling asleep (or sleeping intentionally as well
probably) on a couch with a baby is far more dangerous than co-sleeping
in
bed.
