My point was: we don't want to cram so much stuff onto
breastfeeding  mothers about what they eat that they decide it isn't worth
the trouble to  breastfeed.  Pat in SNJ



Pat, I think my point is what you just stated.  Breastfeeding moms are  told
that they need to eat differently than a mother who is not  breastfeeding.  I
don't agree.  I think we should instead tell all  mothers it is important to
eat healthy for their own health and not to suggest  that if their diet is less
than optimal that it will have a negative effect on  their breast milk.
