Hi all,

Ive always had concerns about this very subject. In New Zealand for at least the last 45-55 years, new born babies at age 3-7 days have what we call a heel Jab. This was done by a nurse who would come to the house and check how baby and Mother were doing, series of simple tests ect.

One of these is the heel jab, a needle jabbed into the babies heel, then heel squeezed till blood appeared then collected by nurse and taken away for testing...routine checks as they say...When my first born had it done it was quite traumatic for the baby and myself as it really hurt them when they did the squeeze trick! So there you have it...sure they would test for all sorts but they now have your DNA on record...I am assuming other western countries do the same?

Peace.
