Winnie asks:  "Has anyone explored whether
the breastfed babies are less picky eaters as other foods are added
to the diet?"

I definitely remember reading somewhere (maybe the Bf Answer Book or Bf and
Human Lactation) that a study was done and your assumption is quite
correct - breastfed babies are less picky eaters!

PS - loved your "soft fist" demo of latch!  Can just picture 100s of
Lactnuts sitting at their computers eating their fists!
