hi,

I came across this site accidentally--but, was quite concerned after reading the
info and suggestion "from a lactation consultant" that the new mom give baby "one
bottle of formula per night" in order to gain "three hours of sleep". Granted there was
a mild disclaimer that "pumped milk" would have been preferable--but, I suspect a 
frazzled new mom would only read the giving bottle=more sleep portion......

I wish the "advice" had included how when mom and baby sleep together it is truly
possible to "sleep" all night!

missing those days and nights of nursing babies--my oldest graduates from high
school tomorrow!
