I can account for both of these in people I know.  I do know someone
whose baby had been bf, and had ONE bottle at the age of 3 weeks and
never ever wanted the breast again.

I myself refused the bottle from day one (they tried to feed me S******c
in the hospital and I gagged and spat it all out, nipple included...),
and never EVER had one, despite my mom trying to smear the teat with
honey, her own milk, sugar, etc.  Same with a pacifier...I knew what was
good for me:  MOM!  ;-)
