Doctor...Jennifer<BR/>I agree, you shouldn't feel guilty. Doctor's tried to make mother's feel guilty that they caused autism for years, before they knew anything about brain chemistry. There was just a big announcement this week that they've discovered a gene complex linked to autism. So I think you are right- it's not the fish or lack of it.<BR/>Good luck!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10647657234812583261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25541467.post-53945008141270821992007-02-20T05:38:00.000-08:002007-02-20T05:38:00.000-08:00Jennifer, glad you don't feel guilty.And yes eg an...Jennifer, glad you don't feel guilty.<BR/><BR/>And yes eg and Jennifer, the fish situation is so full of troubling information. I have heard we will be out of fish due to overfishing soon. And, it's a pain to dodge the farmed and the likely-to-be-full-of-metals. I found a great source of frozen wild salmon at a reasonable price, and I try to add in others randomly.MomTFHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01561428064574541123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25541467.post-45458819868259749532007-02-19T21:08:00.000-08:002007-02-19T21:08:00.000-08:00I too worry about the potential harm from pollutio...I too worry about the potential harm from pollution. Buy farmed fish, you get fish on drugs. Buy wild fish, you get fish hooked on heavy metal. <BR/><BR/>Though, I didn't have even the tiniest bite of any kind of fish while pregnant, and my otherwise perfectly healthy child has ADHD with secondary behaviors in the autistic spectrum (very mild). Honestly? I don't feel even the slightest shred of guilt. People have been trying to pin the blame on me since the symptoms started to occur. It's an organic brain chemistry imbalance. I was told not to eat fish, I didn't eat the fish. Some mothers who happen to have a kid like this who also didn't eat fish might feel like they are to blame. I don't think they are. I don't feel that I am either.jendajenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12156244799359846861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25541467.post-18688267100865586152007-02-19T19:15:00.000-08:002007-02-19T19:15:00.000-08:00SO true...although the conflicting information can...SO true...although the conflicting information can be so diffucult to escape at times...and depending on where you live the conflicts can vary. Good to hear fish is so healthy, though that could make mothers who did not eat much of it for whatever reason feel guilty yet again. The reasons to feel guilty being myriad. Good to hear the fish oil benefits outwheighed the mercury/dioxon/pcb- but that shit still cannot be good for us.<BR/>And worrisone is the fact that greed outwheighs need and there may be NO FISH LEFT in our lifetime!
