Someone responded with an anecdote about a Mom of a 7wk old beginning weaning
but who changes her mind and plans to pump some milk for the 9mths. specified
in the study.
This is all well and good but my response to her would be; how do you know
that the benefit (in terms of IQ advantage) comes from the *breast milk* only
and not from the (physiologically complex) process of brfdng?
If we reduce this *process* to simply a liquid placed in a can, then we make
the job of duplicating it a whole lot easier for the formula
companies....(whoa-WHO do I sound like? ;0)
grrrrrr.......
