Dear Debbie,

I wonder often about the prenatal nutrition of many of these mothers.>>>>

Good point Penny, that certainly could be one of those other
variables.............

Yes, Penny, me too, ...when that mom was telling me all about her two
youngest reportedly *exclusively* BF babies being so ill so much, my thoughts, that I
did not verbalize so bluntly, were along the lines of  "good grief, one or
both of those kids would have probably died if you had not been breastfeeding
them".....

If we could prove that that was in fact the case, one could say, that mom's
breastmilk was a *miracle nectar* (or magic fairy dust)

OT: Were you named after the song?
