I'm guessing this has nothing to do with breastfeeding, actually. Isolated premature thelarche (premature breast development) is not terribly uncommon. Usually, an evaluation to make sure there are no other manifestations of precocious puberty is performed, and if not, usually these kids do well, and breast development does not continue to progress until natural puberty. I've seen this in formula fed kids, too.
