No, I wasn't, but I guess I was exaggerating. My understanding is

that it is good and useful to gain weight during these periods and

counterproductive to try to slim down, which is better done after

breastfeeding than during it.

No, you didn't offend me, and yes that was humor, or sarcasm I

suppose. I guess I shouldn't have directed it at you, since you

aren't the one who posted the study.

I don't think I or anyone else suggested that, and I haven't Googled

anything or mentioned my research experience thus far.

I don't think you have first-hand experience measuring your growth

hormone levels while you are sleeping -- correct me if I'm wrong. I

think you read that somewhere.

Well, ok. Or, you could post some research supporting your position.

It's fine if you want to back out. I haven't given any supporting

research aside from citing or alluding to Colpo's well-referenced book

which includes a chapter on this subject with many references. But I

just hope you don't do so under the guise that giving supportive

research would be egotistical or offensive, because it certainly

wouldn't be.
