"This information is important for women," comments lead author Julie Mennella, PhD, a biopsychologist. "If...

Breastfeeding not found to have an impact on weight of the child.

Previous studies have suggested breastfeeding may help ward off obesity as children get older.// The theory, though, has been inconclusive, with limited long-term data available on breastfeeding and weight of children into adolescence.
