The California local ABC news just reported that what an infant eats in 
the first week of life can determine if they have life long problems 
such as obesity.  If a baby gets formula and gains weight quickly that 
first week, they will be more likely to be obese as adults.  It was a 
very positive story, I was impressed.  I looked for the story on line 
and can't find it at the moment.  Here is their website if you want to 
write a note to them telling them thank you for the positive story on 
breastfeeding.
