I wonder what other factors were looked when designing this stdudy. I am especailly curious if they factored in mothers who were unable to breastfeed because they were pressured into returning to work before their child was 6 months old. Also, is it just breast feeding or breast milk? If one pumps, are the benifits lost with using a bottle and perhaps having someone other than the mother feed the baby? Sometimes links are just that and other factors are at play.

Mother - infant interaction and its importance seems to be down played here. A new born confronted by the world must as traumatic as it would be for an adult suddenly transported from Shimogo finding themself on Little Mack Av. in the Detroit wilderness.
