I agree with Jan's question about research basis for feeding within 2 hours
of birth, especially since 40 years ago we didn't even feed glucose water
for 24 hours!  Has anyone ever continously monitored a "normal" full term
baby after  birth to know what "normal" glucose levels are?  And if a baby
is being continuously stuck wouldn't stress make a difference in levels?
Very problematic.  Anyone need a research project?  Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
