I fully agree (I read the book within the 3 days following publishing).
Also in the other parts there are several mentions of breastfeeding. In the
first (The clan of the cavebear) Ayla looses her milk because she mourned and
was very depressed and did not tend to her babyson and the people around her
did not recognise the need for her to nurse her baby.
Warmly greeting,
