Interesting, this! Do you mean that you got pregnant as a consequence of
adding grains to your diet?

How does calcium depletion feel? And do you have any idea of how you could

What were the signs of him being mucous?

I'm really interested because there is no discussion concerning pregnancy,
breastfeeding and calcium depretion in Sweden. Our health security system
favours parents that have children closer that 2½ years but I believe it
wears down the mothers nourishing resources. When I was a child doctors said
that a woman should always have two summers free of pregnancy between each
child. In Sweden most children are breast fed more than 6 months. A year is
not unusual and som keep it up longer but seldom more than 18 months.
Any ideas around these nourishing questions? Anyone?
