Hi Jennifer,

I didn't notice weight gain -- I'm sure most mothers who put on as much 
weight as I did with my twins would not notice any increase (or less 
rapid decrease) of weight while on dom and bf.

What I did notice were digestive changes, in my case for the better. I 
probably ate more than usual because I had less nausea and constipation. 
We used to joke that the dom had the same effect on me as on my babies 
(they had more typical breastmilk bms when I was on dom and 
supplementing with expressed dom-flavoured milk).

Gee, the things you'll tell 2000 "friends". :-)
