"I am looking for an article I've seen once that describes the benefits of
breastfeeding, starting with for just a few days, up to child-led weaning.
I can't think of what it's called, but it starts with if you breastfeed for
a few days, I think, and then goes on to describe benefits for increasing
periods of time.
Anyone know what I'm talking about ...."

Jennifer,

Indeed, it's from Diane Weissinger's handouts and can be viewed online at
http://www.wiessinger.baka.com/bfing/index.html
for a very nominal fee you can purchase all of Diane's wonderful handouts for
copying and distribution-I have and use many of them in my BF class folder;
the one you mention is one of my favorites.
