"I can't treat your chronic skin problems until you wean your 22 month old.
Your milk isn't doing anything for him now anyway.  It's gotten thin and
there are no immunities in it anymore.  I know;  I'm an immunologist."

*Oooooh*    ~~~>:-( (steam rising above furrowed brow).  But I can't find
references on the composition of milk during the toddler years and beyond,
whether and how it differs from milk in the first 6 months.  I know the
references are out there;  anyone have any?  Falling back on mother-baby
bond won't do;  it's no different from a bottle, you know, and he should
have given that up by now anyway.
