Subject: BF ruining breasts

......I do not believe that breastfeeding, in general, causes breasts to sag
or lose their whatever.  On the contrary, I feel that breasts that have
nursed have a certain je ne sais quoi which make them more attractive.

There followed, on those cold wintery nights, some Lactnet speculation and
discussion about precisely what "je ne sais quoi" meant. For me, and at least
a few others I think, it sounded so good (and in french!) it didn't much
matter. So, Yeal and Lisa, I hope JFO will be as famous for you as it was for
me.
