Thanks for the reference Gina.  This is a great handout.

My only problem with it is: "primeras semanas coma más de 7 u 8 veces al
día" (in the early weeks, [the baby] eats more than 7 or 8 times a day).  I
think moms often see this and think that every three hours is too often.
Except for changing that one part, I would give this to anyone.
