Cathy,

I have heard this before but does that mean that the first child suffers
more long-term HEALTH problems (even if no more learning problems)  than the
subsequent children?  Has that particular point been studied?  Have the
first child's blood levels of toxins been measured against the blood toxin
levels of his or her younger siblings?
