I too can say that with pregnancy and breastfeeding I totally lost all of  my 
asthma symptoms. I have been asthmatic from 'birth' as I was a premie in the  
1960s. To be symptom free for over 8 years was great and totally freaked out 
my  pharmacist; as I have regularly renewed my prescriptions with them for 
many  years. When I went without my meds for 3 months they called to see if I'd  
switched pharmacies!
 
Unfortunately, as soon as my daughter fully weaned (I'd been cycling  
regularly for 2 years) my symptoms came back within 2 months. Total Bummer! My  
doctor (pulmonologist) gave me a study about pregnancy and symptomatology (circ  
2002) from the University of WI but now that I want to share it I can't  find 
it. Seems that it is a 'valid' phenomena and has actually been  researched.
 
Just adding to the anedotes. 
 
Peace,
Maggie, LLLL Oshkosh and Appleton WI
