Great terminology,  Pat.  We had "Truby King" babies, we've had "Ezzoid 
Babies" and now we have  "AAP Babies."
 
One wonders if at any  point in their lives these poor little things are 
allowed a "lovey" (blankie or  other such object).  Those used to be 
"transitional" love objects that the  older baby had.  Now they are going to be primary 
love objects, but since  they can't have them until they are -- ???? -- you 
wonder what type of children  we are going to create in the next generation.
 
If any of you heard Nancy  Williams speak at the LLL Lactation Specialist 
Workshop series (my gosh, she was  WONDERFUL -- thank you Nancy!!) you know we 
have reason to be afraid for  the next generation -- be very afraid.
 
Sigh.
