One which should be printed out and given to parents on the day they leave hospital with their babies. I have nothing to add, but it’s a great list.

A huge decline in breastfeeding and an increase in processed food that doesn't give us the nutrients we need to build strong, healthy immune systems are vey likely to play a significant role in the allergy problem. Interesting stuff. *Chloe, you're right, it is absolutely not just for infants. I would've happily gone on nursing TNC for much longer if she hadn't self-weaned at 17 months. *Siobhan, thanks for the vote of support! *BC, I'm so pleased that you're committed to giving breastfeeding a chance to work for you and your baby. It might be tough in the beginning but if you stick it out, you will be soooo glad you did as the convenience and closeness it brings is fantastic! And if you get tired of getting up in the night for feeds, just remember that a) you can always just pop the baby into bed with you and then you barely have to wake up to stick a boob in its mouth (I did this so often and it saved my sanity and sleep!) and b) yes, you will be the chief nighttime parent for probably the first year but after being pregnant, giving birth and breastfeeding continuously for at least that long, you can sit back and relax with a glass of vino and let your hubby be Superdad during the tantrumy toddler years. :-D *Strawberry, I do think that’s very possible.

I'm certainly going to give it a pop, all that sterilising bottles sounds like a load of bollocks, something to avoid unless I'm forcing Mr BC, at gunpoint, to do night feeds ;-). Cheers BC PS, actually I don't think I'll have to force him at gunpoint. He's a sweetie.
