Cathy, I have 14 (12 BF and 2 poor dears bot fed). 12 nat deliveries - 2 with epidurals - guess :-) They range in age from 3 mo to almost 18. The one in college was homeschooled and is ahead of herself. Did college courses at local community college during her senior HS year and started college with one semester done. She told me the other day that her first semester away is a 3.1, which I think is great considering she is far away from home for the first time in her life. Of course she was BF 2+ years! You have to understand that I adopted my first child(who will be 40 this year) at the age of 2 1/2 - I was precocious - what can I say :-) Actually I was 18 when I had her in 1959 Ack now you all know that I'll be 58 next mo. Nursed her for 2 1/2 weeks, which is probably amazing for 1959! She has nursed all her 3 babies for 2 + years and worked(!) My five kids are 29-39 with birthdays starting in May. Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
