That was my experience with breastfeeding, also. I did not experience the forgetfulness that they cited in the article.
My mom is a Janet Reno personality type, funny you should mention it. She is an absolute knockout, even in her fifties she's still got it going on. But personality wise? Groan. Serious, literal, can't loosen up very much. These last 5 years, she's not had the influence of a man in her life (my dad's illness) and she's gotten 'harder'. She is an engineer and has begun acting more like her male colleagues, in fact. I know she has a hard time, working in a field dominated by men, but acting like one of them may win her professional advancement but it aint doing nothing for her personality!
