"Does anyone have any references on feeding guidelines for older babies? I
am working with a mom of 5mo twins who is feeding them 6x/day, she wants to
know if that is OK (they are on target growth wise)."
Uh, here we are again in the numbers game. The babies should feed just often
enough. How often is that? Often enough to gain weight adequately and be
happy babies. Any guide that says "x" number of feedings is wrong, wrong,
wrong, wrong. That's 4 wrongs. Does that make a right?
