Hi everyone,

I have not introduced myself yet.  I thought it was time, and I also wanted
to respond to a post.
I am a LLL Leader with Hawai'i.  I have three children--- Gabrielle 6 1/2
years, Alexander 4 years and K'Ehleyr 21 months.  All were nursed, and my
youngest is still nursing.
As far as a mother consuming her own milk, I have often wondered about that
myself.  I was not breastfed, so I have wondered if my milk could possibly
make up for a little of the good I never received.  Does this sound crazy?
 The more I learn about breastmilk, the more I wonder how I even survived
infancy.  My brothers were fed a concoction of evaporated milk, water and
Karo syrup.   I on the other hand survived on eggnog (without the rum of
course!)!  I am very serious.  I wonder what will happen as far as my health
as I get older.  Needless to say, I am very much into vitamins and such.
 Without bragging, I have always excelled in academics.  What if I had been
breastfed?  Would I have been a genius?!

Just wondering.

Aloha,
Gloria Thai   LLL of Hawai'i
