Just remembered that ages ago in the ILCA Globe -- mmm, about 1993 or 1994, I
got a letter from someone in Switzerland, I believe, who was doing some
research on galactogogues -- she said they recommend big hearty bowls of
oatmeal to their moms there too.  I'd have to dig through my old Globes to
find it, but it is there somewhere...
