regarding Andrew MD and weaning age cited as "can be 2 1/2 years", is
that in the U.S.  Sounds too good for us.  I was under the impression
that world wide the average was 4 1/2 yrs. which means many are getting
the benefit of nursing past that age.  Does anyone have a reference on
these statistics?  I hate to quote things and not be able to back up
where it came from.   Since so many in the U.S. wean at such a young age
I would think 2 1/2 yrs. is rather long for the average.  I'd appreciate
some specifics.
