Now, I'm going to sound like I'm recanting, but "cue-feeding" or "go-with
the flow", or "command feeding" is ideal, however...  After re-reading my
post about all the rules and stipulations we put on the schedule thing, I
talked to yet another mom whose baby was obviously drugged out of its mind
and body.  The sleepy or drugged babies need their mothers to trust their
instincts and feed them when the mom starts to feel her own cues (like
leaking, fullness, a mental "click" that it's time).  This is after all, a
two way street--the dance of bf.
