Claudine,

Small sample of one family.  I was *not* breastfed beyond ten days and get
severe monthly migraines while cycling.  My children have been all breastfed
for a looooong time.  Oldest dd gets severe migraines; oldest ds gets
occasional moderate migraines.  The younger three seem fine so far.  The
oldest dd was intolerant of cow's milk until she was about six; there does
not seem to be a connection, but I buy from "nice cows" (no hormones, etc.).
The oldest ds does not drink cow's milk and still has headaches.  Even with
extended breastfeeding, all of our children suffer from allergies and I find
a connection between the allergies and the headaches.  Mine are hormonal.
HTH.

P.S.  Does anyone have Nancy Powers' e-mail addy?  I tried leaving a phone
message today, but e-mail would be much more convenient in tracking down
some info I hope she holds.  TIA.
