I believe there are some case studies on babies whose parents have
followed extreme parent-led feeding schedules such as the ones
promoted by the Ezzos- including some fatalities.
My recollection is that a Doctor Aney ws documenting adverse
effects of 'Babywise'.
This should at least help you Google for more info.
