The last  time I checked, Medela had no safety and  efficacy studies to
support  the use of the Hazelbaker fingerfeeder.
While there appear to  be a variety of reasons for  using finger feeding,
where are the  published studies that show that finger  feeding helps babies
to
breastfeed?

Nikki -- or anyone:   do you know of any safety and efficacy  studies that
support the use of bottlefeeding in babies?

Are there any published studies (not case reports, not personal opinion)
that show that bottle feeding helps babies learn to breastfeed?

If you have any, I'd love the references.   I don't know that  I've seen any
studies, but I'm sure there may be quite a few that I've  missed.

Thanks for your help!
