Ruth: Dr. Chet Berlin of Hershey PA (Chocolate capital of the world!) has assured us that what you say about maternal chocolate intake is true! I had a mom who weaned her first because she heard you can't ever have chocolate and bf! Thankfully she has gone on to nurse subsequent children since that myth was laid to rest.
