1 - replenishing your body's vitamin and mineral supply, before having another child, sounds very beneficial for all. besides starting on a prenatal vitamin before pregnancy, does anyone know of a good list compiled somewhere that would be good to get a lot of these vitamins from? i'm not even sure what type of keyword would be a good way to search for a list like this would be.

2 - @changingseasons - do you know where i could see this article? perhaps it would have suggestions on foods to eat too!

3 - if anyone else has any suggestions that you're finding now that your children are older. for how to help a 2nd child avoid or lessen their allergies to milk, soy and eggs. i would love to hear them. we haven't started trying for a 2nd child yet, but anything i could do now, to help, would be great!

I'm not sure if this is the one I was talking about, but here's one about vitamin D:
