Ellen, every new poster's posts have to be "ok'd" by the forum before posting..up until the 10th. I see you are at the 10th so you should be able to post in real time now. I remember when I first started that I was frustrated with that, too, because I was trying to reply to people and it just looked like I wasn't thanking them or I was out of sequence. We all know this so don't worry.
Bottom line is this - you did nothing wrong. If you don't have knowledge of something, you can only act on what you have knowledge on. Before researching and learning of the issues at hand, I would have done the EXACT same thing. I completely understand your reasoning, too. It really just comes down to the fact that we all act on our knowledge and beliefs AS WE ACQUIRE THEM.
You have this information now..as I do. I am sure it will guide your choices in the future as the information you had BEFORE today guided your choices.
Lully is ADORABLE!!! You have a great baby! Please know that we are so happy you and Lully are here. And we love you both
