>I believe there is a citation for the 5-6% wt loss, I've seen Barbara
Wilson-Clay mention this and so this might be in her BF ATlas book, which I
don't have here at home, or it may be in a JHL article.<
Sam Oddie (neonatologist) and I looked at the literature on this in a paper
we did a few years ago, of course there may be new literature.
Sachs M & Oddie S (2002). Breastfeeding - weighing in the balance:
reappraising the role of weighing babies in the early days. MIDIRS Midwifery
Digest 12, 296-300.
I seem to remember there should be some posts in the Lactnet archives, too.
I just tried 'newborn weight loss' and a large number came up, you would
have to trawl through and think of some more search terms if you don't get
what you want.
