[blparent] need urgent help

Tue May 25 10:12:26 UTC 2010

Against the law, get all the information contact Gary Wunder ASAP and the 
National Office.

And babies something breathe slower when breast feeding because they are 
very close to the body, maybe she was holding the baby to close, someone 
should have just suggested that she has someone in the hospital come and 
watch her breast feed like someone from Leche which is a group that helps 
with Breast feeding.

Not to take away the baby.
