Fair enough. Presumably, after satisfying yourself that there was no danger lurking in the diapers you allowed her and the baby to board their flight.
Question: Did you write down her personal details?
If so, I have to wonder what possible purpose this could serve. I'll tell you this: if it does turn out that (in addition to the diapers) she was carrying a bomb and blew up the airplane, I would hate to be the TSA supervisor who tells the nation that "We had our suspicions of her and took down all the details before letting take her bomb on board."
