Ah but that kinda makes it sound like breastfeeding was exclusive, then
wasn't and then was resumed again...I think we were more talking about a baby
who may not have ever been exclusively breastfed. Also it might be saying
something we don't mean, since exclusively breastfed probaby should mean
"exlcusively and adequately" as opposed to a baby who got no supplements but
was underfed and doing poorly, which is often the case here?   We might need
something like "delayed exclusive", or " late-success exclusive
breastfeeding" although Im not totally happy about the personal connotations
of the word "success" but if this is a term LCs use to clarfiy for each
other, maybe it would work...
