Me either. I did eat them. I also ate them while breast feeding. The
nurse that ran the breast feeding class told us not to change our diets
because people all over the world were eating all sorts of things and those
babies were fine. She did say that if we noticed that something we were
eating/drinking *was* bothering our baby to stop it but otherwise, carry on.
