Re: ref for number of feedings in young infant -- how about: de Carvalho M, Robertson S, Merkatz R & Klaus M (1982). Milk intake and frequency of feeding in breast fed infants. Early Human Development, 7(2), 155-63. Re: opthalmologist indicating mother's visual issues are related to BF -- I'd be very interested to read the reseach he provided to support his view.
