I had to take a pause from some very important online research (really!) and post a link to this latest study on the benefits of breastfeeding. If you don't read Slate regularly, you should. There are some really great writers publishing there.

I always enjoy hearing Dr. Sydney Spiesel on the NPR show Day-to-Day. On Slate they transcribe his interviews from the radio program and today's commentary is fascinating. I'm wondering why I didn't hear about this before now?

For any mom who didn't, wouldn't or couldn't breastfeed, this one's for you!
