Hi Justine,

I have sent back your questionnaire but it really opened up a whole can 
of worms in my mind.  B.F. was one of the issues that really screwed me 
up for awhile.  I battled with both my preemies to give milk.  Expressed 
for three month with both of them but it was always a losing battle.  
Evenutally with my oldest one I gave up at 3 months.  The strangest thing 
happned about two months after I stopped feeding and my milk just dried 
immediately, did not need any mediciation, our geyser burst, I went into 
such a panic running to grab the baby out his room and then burst out 
laughing when we got outside and found that my milk was literally pouring 
out of me - so much for no milk all I needed was the emotional stimulas 
to get it flowing.  After that I fed a while longer but never felt 100% 
comfortable doing it.

Thanks Justine for doing this survey - I am glad to know that it is a 
commen problem and that again I was not just "a useless women"

Ina
