Perhaps, just from the list alone, one could do an informal study.
I was breastfed for two days, then formula, then a daily 8 oz. glass of 
milk which was the bane of my childhood. I started developing at age 12 and 
got my period bay about 12.5
My daughter was exclusivly breastfed for 14 months and, after she started 
solids, continued to breast feed for almost three years. I nursed her older 
brother throughout her pregnancy so she is a product of tandem nursing. She 
had no cow milk products until she was two and has never really liked them, 
except for hard cheese for some reason. (Pizza?)
She was a skinny kid, she started developing aroung age twelve, had a major 
growth spurt and within a year looked like a woman. (both of us are rather 
blessed on top, if you  know what I mean)
After she gave burth to her first child she had milk to the point of over 
supply and nursed my grandson for two years. She would have kept going but 
she found nursing while pregnant tiring and uncomfortable.
that's our story for what it's worth.
