Dear Lactnet Friends:

De Carvalho, and Yamanouchi and Yamouchi both published about bf frequency;
that 8-9 breastfeeds a day for the first 3 days virtually prevents
physiologic jaundice.

I remember post long ago on Lactnet, was it someone quoting Chele Marmet,
that newborns in Japan with unrestricted access to their mothers would
nurse 20 times a day.

There is no way to have enough breastfeeding unless the newborns are in
their mothers' arms, or so close to her that she responds to every little
cue and wiggle.

warmly,

--
