I was reading with interest the feeding instructions and remembered what 
is in my own baby book. I am 56 and was born at the end of 1949. My mother 
was a clinical dietician and I was breastfed exclusively.

My mother and I always laughed that she was told to offer me "orange juice 
on a spoon at two weeks of age. Isn't that funny? My pediatrican was 
obviously very supportive of breastfeeding but back then, I guess we kids 
got juices lots earlier.

The instructions were to breastfeed in three hour intervals. I wonder if 
she did that?
