Yes it came through!

That's absolutely fascinating Alia.  I had gone and read the 'generic' 
version on the website, in absence of the PDF, and quite understand your 
caution.

Now, I have a question.

If there anywhere in all this work you've all done, that might suggest 
that the 'nursing aversion' some mothers experience during ovulation and 
menstruation, has anything to do with this response?

I know that many have a painful nursing time, and that calc/mag often 
helps with the pain, due to lower supply.  However, I have one friend at 
the moment, who reports intense psychological distress on nursing during 
ovulation and menstruation.  She loves nursing at other times. 

So I'm wondering if there may be a hormone connection?  Against this 
being so, is the fact that the 'nursing aversion' (GET THIS BABY OFF 
ME!!!") I'm referring to lasts for the entire nursing time, and does not 
appear to be linked to let-down.  But it is utterly linked to menses.  
And, of course, many pregnant mothers state the same thing.

A lot of mothers I know have this immediate skin-crawling aversion 
around the menstrual cycle.  And as I said, for one Mum I know at the 
moment, it's causing serious problems.

Anything you've done in this to suggest a link?  Or is completely 
off-centre as a thought?

I hope this answers your question! And sorry about the link...I really hope this one goes through!
