Should the amount of time breastfeeding be limited for the "small for gestational age", "late pre-term" or "pre-term babies" because they burn more calories than they consume?  No one seems to care how much they suck on a pacifier while they’re on the care center.  I thought this was an old myth?  Are there any studies?
Regards,
Linda
