Hi Noelle,

I can't believe you are Soooo Close to having our little baby Max... How are yo doing?

Remember I'm Old when I tell you this.... I nursed all my four and in those days we were advised to drink a glass of beer while we were nursing as it relaxed us and help with milk production... I know everything we eat or drinks goes into breast milk so I guess the beer didn't do my children any harm.

If you are not sure ask the doc. Also in "those days" No-one ever told us we couldn't have a drink as no-one knew it was not good for you. Friends and I talk about this now that we are older and things are so different. I was Very lucky as I couldn't Stand smoking from day one even before I knew I was PG or I guess I'd have done that to, as every one else did.

I'm sure this is No Help but I'm Bored!

Barbara
