I have heard of babies needing a bottle of sugar water directly after birth for being hypoglycemic. This happened to a friend of mine and then her baby would not breastfeed. The child is not hypoglycemic now, it was ONLY upon birth. I REALLY want to breastfeed so I am wondering if there is any way to be sure this won't happen? Is because the mother does not eat in labor? Or is it just something that you can't really control?
