He documents the problems of producing milk for nursing and concerns about the health of the mother. Philippe Hecquet was "M.D. of Reins 1684 and physician to Port-Royal 1688-93. . . Hecquet . . . had to enter the Paris Faculty as a student in 1694 obtaining the license two years later and the 'bonnet de docteur' in 1697.
