202. That's not what they're implying
Edited on Thu Jun-08-06 06:03 PM by conflictgirl
They are saying that by those ages, kids *may* switch from formula to primarily solid foods and cow's milk. They are not saying that anything is wrong with continuing to nurse.

One thing I always wonder: why do breastfeeding babies need to quit before they're a year old (according to many) but it's just fine and normal for people to drink the breastmilk of another species after that? It's still all breastmilk. What makes the breastmilk of cows better for humans than the breastmilk of humans? Makes no sense to me whatsoever.

edited to fix a confusing typo
