<<Mom is preparing a letter for the specialist and is looking for references
that breastmilk is not constipating. Mom already has a lot of references,
but specific to newborns/infants/babies, not toddlers.
This mother found it very disappointing for a pediatric specialist to
suggest weaning since his belief is that human milk is constipating.
Of you have any references or suggestions I could pass on to this mother,
it would be appreciated.>>
I would turn it around, and ask the specialist for his scientific data that
human milk is constipating in a 29 month old!! He doesn't know what he is
talking about.
I know next to nothing about this particular case, but have the parents
tried completely eliminating COW's milk from the kid's diet?? (and mom's,
at least for a while)
