giving out these handouts regarding "Trained Night Feeders." .......
The handout states:  "Your goal for a formula-fed baby is to give him four
meals a day by 4 months of age.  Breast-fed [sic] babies often need five
feedings each day until they are 6 months old, when solid foods are added
to their diet."....


Becky, it sounds like this pediatrician has been thoroughly "EZZO-ED!!"
Four meals a day by 4 months??? Get real.
