Quote From: dlonggaPlease tell me you aren't serious! Breastfed babies are SOO much healthier and thrive more than formula fed babies, not to mention they are mcuh earlier in development. My granddaughter just turned 5 mo old, she rolls over, she sleeps all nite (and has since she was 3 weeks old)...she is a very happy baby. She watches your mouth when you speak to her or make sounds and she imitates the sounds and has done that for 3 months. She is currently trying to say "MAMA" ...she also is the most content serene child I have ever seen. And she is never sick, her immune system is very strong.
My oldest son and his brother both did those same things. In fact, my oldest is the top of his class despite being almost a year younger than most of his classmates. I sense a huge amount of pride in your posts about your granddaughter and that's great. However, great kids are made from more than one or two choices. It is their whole environment that determines their overall well being. Oh, by the way, things like "serene" aren't really attributed to breastfeeding as my sons were not ever , nor ever will be "serene" but they are happy.
Oh and I never breastfed!!!!!
