Here's another of those generic fence-straddling
articles about breastfeeding currently available
on-line in the Los Angeles Times.  There is a
rather surprising quote from a neonatologist at
Long Beach Memorial Hospital, Jose Perez stating:
(as a reason to maybe not feel so bad if you chose
not to breastfeed or can't for some reason)
"...immunity protection only works for a couple of
months until the baby starts making its own
immunities."
