For those of you who are working with infants experiencing Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome, do you run into problems w/ Finnegan scale? In particular the score for sleeping < 1 hour after feeding - scores a 3 - even though this is considered normal in a newborn breastfeeding baby. Even though it's only one of the 22 scores, it's often upsetting to patients. Anything you could share would be appreciated.
