I'm writing with a request for information.  Does anyone have any data on
appropriate/normal levels for a breastfeeding 2yo? The 31yo uncle of the child
died suddenly and an autopsy found really bad coronary artery disease that
probably existed since childhood (I don't know how they would know that, only
reporting what was told to me). It was suggested the whole family be tested for high cholesterol and the 2yo's came back around 190. The mom is requesting some ammunition in case the doctor suggests weaning as she is not ready to yet.
(P.S. Mom is a nutritionist)I looked in Lawrence but couldn't really find anything that would be helpful to her. Can anyone help me help her?

Thanks,
Ilene Fabisch, IBCLC
