We've seen a couple of  cases where a baby was put on a rigid feeding 
schedule early on and developed  depression & anorexia.  One case in Washington where 
the baby was on a  feeding tube as well.  You can read about their story at:

(http://www.ezzo.info/Voices/hsieh.htm)    I don't know that this has anything to do with your case, but it might 
be worth  exploring...
 
Karen and all -- I wish  you all the best with this baby.  It makes my heart  
break.
