[blparent] passing the baby

[Pipi]

My only suggestion is that if someone asks to hold the baby, you say yes but 
only if you do not pass the baby to anyone else without either my permission 
or letting me know first. You can then explain your concerns about not 
knowing where your baby is and that is important for you to know.
Hope this helps.
