Today I met with a Mum who has 8 children (she just loves kids).  she
was telling me that she feels that her teeth has definately suffered
as a result of breastfeeding.  At one stage she was tandem feeding a
4 year and 2 year old, whilst pregnant with twins.  She is now
feeding a 4 year old and 2 year old again.  The question arose about
osteoporosis and breastfeeding for such a long time, and the possible
effect on ones teeth.  I would imagine that the teeth could not be
affected by breastfeeding.  Does any one know more on this subject.
