This is from the oh baby pregnancy updates emailed to me... makes it sound like the baby chooses if it is going to breastfeed or not?!

The baby's adrenal glands have begun to produce hormones such as androgen and estrogen. These hormones stimulate the hormone prolactin in the mother's body, causing her to make colostrum, the milk that will feed the baby in the first few days if she chooses to breast-feed.

Wow that is interesting, it would be said then Andrew and Josh have different hormones.
I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

LOL GandT, that's what is known as an "unclear antecedent" -- it's unclear whether the "she" is referring to the mum or the baby. I think that sentence assumes that people will realise that "she" is referring to the mum, since the baby's gender isn't mentioned... But I can see what you mean! LOL
