Bob, Follow the thread. We got to the "pregnant" discussion as an analogy to the breast feeding condition (gee, I make it sound like a disease). For all you guys out there who apparently *can't* read, I'll say it one more time. And it'll be the *last* time, so pay attention: When I advised Serena (who must be sorry by now to have started all this) to stay out of the water, I was merely stating what I'd do if I were in her shoes. Now, I'm more careful than most people. I do not have _any_ reason to suppose that's what the agencies, DAN, doctors or the girl scouts would have advised, and I *know* that any of those parties have more theoretical and practical knowledge of the issues here than I do. Clear now? I hope so, because I have no intention of wasting any more bandwidth with my - one last time - purely personal opinion. And before anyone says that I have no business giving personal, unfounded opinions in this forum, let me defend myself by saying that I thought that's what she was asking for. If I was wrong, I apologize to Serena. Sorry for the outburst, folks. I just got a bit tired of repeating myself.
