If you can, try get hold of a book called "Bestfeeding: Getting Breastfeeding Right for You" by Mary Renfrew, Chloe Fisher and Suzanne Arms and also "Juju Sundin's Birth Skills with Sarah Murdoch"

I've found both these books brilliant - Easy to read and really easily comprehensive (which is good when you have preggy brain )

The Bestfeeding book is by far and large the best book on Breastfeeding I've managed to come across to date, so if you can find a copy, definately get it!

All the best!

Well I sent you a PM back but I forgot to mention the Liver tests and your post triggered my mind.

They are testing your Uric Acid levels, with Andrew mine went sky high (alomst double the normal amount - yet I was sure I wasn't sick), and with Josh they were in the .4 - .5 range so still high.
I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!
