In our  hospital we have been giving small amounts of colostrum to babies 
with a spoon  especially if babies are too sleepy during the 1st 24 hours.  All 
of a  sudden there has been some questions arise about using a spoon for  
feedings.  Does anyone have a policy or know of any documentation about  giving 
colostum with a spoon.  I have checked the archives and mostly got  just 
anecdotal information.  



Give me a break!
    Ask for their policies on bottle-feeding.
    There won't be any.
    So then make a policy committee, full of bf  advocates!
    warmly,
