 I may be wrong, but I think this is a mega-stretch on their part.  What
 proof do they have of elevated lead levels in ANYONE who uses the firing

Sounds like someone is using an excuse to not breastfeed.  But this reminds
me of a client  who asked about lead poisoning possibilities from a bullet
that was still in her.  I think this was posted to Lactnet and I think it was
dear Dr. Jack that said, she could have blood levels for lead poisoning done
and if they were positive on her blood then do levels in baby also.  She did
get blood levels and hers were fine so their was no need to do them on the
baby.
