"BTW is the test water feed still in place in hospitals?"

In our hospital , formula fed babies are given a test water feed with
sterile water first, but breastfeed babies receive breast!
Some nurses give breast babies test water feeds after the first
breastfeeding..... Seems after the fact to me, but its hard to break the
habits of some.
