Re: repositioning tips-pic in photo file

[Guest guest]

I also breast fed until 7 months. One of the reasons I stopped was

my son would NOT eat from one side (which started around 2 months

and could not be rectified no matter what I did and after several

contacts with the ped. and lac. consultants) and I honestly think

was one of the contributing factors of his plagio or a result of

lack of ROM (although no torticolis). IS the bulge and the non-flat

side different?
