Jay:  Thanks for sharing your story with us.  I think it truly courageous
that you went forward from your history of being abused to fully nurturing
your babes.

I have encountered pregnant women whose vehement opposition to
breastfeeding makes me wonder what their sexual history was like. I
remember one woman who said, "Breastfeed?? Me?? NEVER!  That is nasty,
nasty, nasty!!!"

Another woman admitted she had weaned when her baby was a week old because,
"I kept feeling that putting my breast in his mouth was abusing him."

Thanks again Jay for your courage in putting forward this important issue
regarding sexuality and BF.
