I was wondering how many people use cup feeding and what your experiences are
with this method. I personally have NEVER had a baby cup feed more than 30 cc
(usually it is less) when the baby signals that he is done. Yet, numerous
babies are being fed 2-3 ounces from a bottle by the staff nurses who then
say "see, he was hungry"....are there any others with my experiences??? Maybe
this will be an addition to my "future studies after I get my PhD" files.
