I have been corresponding with a pregnant mom who is trying to compare
what she is reading in the Ezzo "babywise" program with Dr. Sears'
literature. Here is a note I received from her:

> This is my first baby, and I'm planning to do a lot of reading in both the
> Babywise/Prep for Parenting and Sears/Attachment Parenting directions.  I do
> value successful breastfeeding above an early schedule, and I'm wondering if
> you have references for your comments above.  Was this a scientific study
> done somewhere?
>
> I've also noticed William Sears arguing against scheduling in "The Baby
> Book", but he isn't giving references either.  Call me scientifically
> twisted, but I'm interested in what research has been done.

Any thoughts on how I might respond? She will be sharing the info with a
large group of mothers on her "due date" e-mail l*st.
