Hi Cathy and all,
I had one interesting case, where a mom who actually had had breast 
reduction, was so absolutely positive that she was going to have enough 
milk, and just rejected my suggestion of pumping and supplementing from the 
start due to poor test weights, had a very very fussy baby.
She went to a local alternative practitioner who uses the pendulum for 
checking food allergies or sensitivities in the baby, and they discovered 
that honey was the culprit. As soon as the mom, who normally consumed a fair 
amount of honey each day, ceased using honey, the baby improved practically 
overnight.
I learned a few things from this mom and baby, the possibility of honey 
being a culprit, and that a determined mom like this, and probably a very 
good surgeon, enable them to breastfeed totally and exclusively for the 
duration of the bfg experience - which at a year and a half is still 
continuing.!!

Rgds,

Tel Aviv - which is still really sunny - the rain just doesn't want to come!
