I have received some very interesting email from someone is greatly involved
in shouting to the world that BF an infant when the mother has silicone
implants is a dangerous thing to do, because all the infants have a major
problems.  I think that she is working closely with attorneys to gather names
and "cases".  I don't know if anybody will convince her otherwise.  My
message to her was that some problems have been reported in a small study
that had flaws in design and that until more information was available that
the know advantages of BF still made this the better choice for babies.

If anybody is interested in receiving copies of the email she sent me, send
me a private email message with the subject "BF IMPLANTS" and I will send you
a copy.

I think we will hear more about this issue in the future.  One group of
lawyers have had their day in the sun with the suits of the mothers against
the manufactures.  I think this will be round 2 against the manufacturers.
