This makes me wonder: are there any studies done on healthy newborns in a
non-medicated, non-hospital setting. I wonder if any of us really *knows* what
normal sleeping-feeding behaviour is of newborns in a *natural* setting,
(meaning non-medicated birth in a non-hospital/institional setting), whit mom
and baby not separated and both healthy. And what effect on short and long term
milksupply this sleeping-feeding behaviour has. Does anyone out there know?
