Martin, Nice to have your say as a guy, but the reality is in last CDC report, the rate of exclusively breastfeeding at 6 months is 22%. 20% of babies are never breastfeed for a variety of reason; adoption, illness, single moms who have to work, etc. 25 years ago pediatricians advised to add cereals and water flavored with apple juice before 6 months. And how many children age 1-6 now have no more than 4 ounces of juice? I agree with you, but this guideline may come as a shock to many not steeped in the "fruit is nature's candy" LC world.
