Thank you Chris Mulford for the great information on parent's perception 
of baby's "fullness". One of the things that I am careful to teach at 
home visits is "baby talk". I point out the baby's messages for the 
parents, and empower them to read their baby. (I often get feedback that 
this was the most valuable part of the consult.)  Perhaps showing the 
"relaxed hands, arms away from face, head tipped a bit back" baby 
posture that means "I'm happily full" to this mom will make a difference 
to her.
