Some thoughts about cause and effect and more effects to one cause...
I think that formula could be a factor ion autism for all the reasons
mentioned before, but I also think that it can be reversed and that mothers
with autistic children may experience problems inb early breastfeeding due to
the autistic disorder and than wean to formula. Perhaps the
attachmentdisorder in autistic children may make them fight the closeness in
breastfeeding?
So is it the formula causing/triggering the autisme or is it the autisme
making mom go to formula or a bit of both?
