This is not my area of expertise, but a couple of questions come to
mind:
1. Is there any research on babies' and young children's cholesterol
levels? It's not something we usually test young kids for, so how do we
even know what normal is for them?

2. How much breastmilk is this 2 year old getting at this point? Seems
to me it would be a stretch to blame the high cholestrol on breast milk
since (a) it is clearly in the family and (b) I imagine the baby is
eating mostly other foods at this point.
