No disrepect taken. I was just remembering a thread from posts to one of the forums a year or so ago. I was remembering what others had written. If their info was wrong and I passed it on, I apologize.

Now someone has to go out and do the research as the pros and cons (if any) to breastfeeding while pregnant with the next one. Who volunteers for the research (and it has to be real literature, not "I heard from a friend" That's what got me in this situation!)

Speak to you Sunday.
