Hi all,

Re Kathy Dettwyler's comment on eating disorders not found in cultures
where breastfeeding is the norm. Wouldn't it be interesting to see
statistics on how many in the US with eating disorders were formula fed?

Back to my soapbox where I think EVERY medical workup should include the
questions: Were you breast or bottle fed?  If breast fed, how long? If it
didn't do anything other than make people aware that there is another way
to feed a baby, it would be worth the time. :)
