I want to remind all of you to check your homes for lead. On another list I'm on someone just posted that their stove and fridgerator tested positive for lead. Our bathtub and a lunchbox tested positive for lead. Other places that can be sources of lead are sinks, pipes & sodder (I haven't checked ours yet-I really should, but I'm scared to), paint, blinds, toys, jewelry, dishes-and not just old ones. I'm sad to say there is probably more. Everyday I hear of something else I never thought could possibly be a sorce. BTW, both of my kids had blood tests come back negative for lead but hair tests showed lead exposure.
