From what you state, the pedi hasn't offered "proof" to support his/her theory either. Why would the burden of proof be on the normal function of breastfeeding/lactation/human milk rather than on the pedi's theory that is only a "perhaps"? I'd think a doc dad would be wanting the pedi's refs that support such a supposition... And what is the related health concern the pedi has for this toddler associated with these breast buds?
