Nothing beats the intuition of a mother, nothing. And the best doctors, the most efficient and well trained ones, know this and rely on it. If, when I was a younger mom, I had a doc who didn't 'get this', we weren't their patient very long! And now my daughter is one of those "great" doctors; a pediatrician who is absolutely adored by her patients and their parents. And she's 33 and uses alternative medicine when it's available and useful.
