I noticed this:
>We have all of our moms breast and formula keep a feeding journal while in
the hospital and for several days at home.  <snip>  This has helped a lot in
making sure that
babies don't go for 5 or more hours without feeding because "they are so
good" and "why wake a sleeping baby".<

Could someone tell me what the 5 hours pertains to?  Is there a body or
research which supports the use of this number of hours between feeds
(presumably in the early days of baby's life), that I hae completely failed
to register????

Thanks
