Right, Kathleen. I would also like to see how "breastfeeding" is defined.
Once, ever? Once a day with the rest of the feedings ABM? Breastfeeding for
only a limited period of time, a week or a month? Any these could be chosen
to affect the outcome of the study, if someone wanted to sway results.

Also one single study rarely negates volumes of previous, well researched
data.
