Hi All,
Pat Gima makes an interesting query...What were these moms fed?  I also
wonder about a lot of the fertility problems these days...same question:
What were these men and women fed?  How about their parents?

On a personal note, I was BF for 3 months, then abruptly put on ABM,
couldn't tolerate any of them, and almost died until finally put on a Soy
ABM.  I have been lucky to not have had any reproductive problems (Fertile
Myrtle, here...wondering if I could get preg even with my hubby fixed...)
nor have I had any problems with milk supply with any of my 3 boys.  In fact
with my first, looking back, I had an over-supply, problem, but had no clue
as to what to do about it.

I read Rachel Brusseau's Thesis and was very impressed.  THere was a lot of
technical stuf that went WAY WAY WAY over my head, but the stuff I did
understand was fabulous.  If you ahven't read it yet, check it out.  Great
stuff.

Anyway, this would be another interestin gstudy to do...The effects of Soy
ABM of the 1960's and later, on the humans of today.  Do a comparison of BF
and reproductive problems of our species when BF was the norm vs ABM being
the norm.  Before anyone says "Hey, Jay.. go for it!" let me tell you, I am
NOT a researcher!  I have no experience in that fiedl at all, so someone
else will have to do it!  :D

Take it easy all!
Jay
