I found this discussion interesting. In Australia , in metric terms I use
150mls/kg/24 hrs for full term babies or 180mls-200mls/kg/24hrs for SGA
babies or prems. I loved Dianne's expression of "full as a tick" however
and often encourage mums to look for that fully drunken , milk dribbling
out the side of the mouth look. Most mums can relate to that.
