Re: wooden crib (Re: Re:Flame Retardants)- weaning age

[Guest guest]

Weaning at 9 or 13 months is not weaning, it is a nursing strike. Seems

like weaning at the time when you're going through it, though. There's

more info on the topic at www.kellymom.com, or on the La Leche League

website, I can't remember the exact address. Weaning age for our species

is quite old, from a purely native nutrition standpoint. 3-7 years old

is the age range for weaning, in societies where breastfeeding is not

limited by restrictive cultural norms. See Breastfeeding: Biological

Perspectives by Dettwyler (sp?), among a myriad of academic references.
