BOGOR (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): Siti Mauliah remembers vividly how the baby handed to her by a nurse before she left the hospital where she had given birth had a fuller head of hair than the child she had breastfed just a day earlier.

When she reached home, her concerns that something bad had occurred grew when the baby rejected her attempts to breastfeed him. He was also not wearing the clothes she had packed for him.
