"The latest findings from the Cochrane Library
Newborn infants who are cup-fed as at least part of their feeding regime, are
more likely to be exclusively breast-fed when they leave hospital, but are
no more likely to be breast-fed three or six months later, a team of Cochrane
researchers have found. Moreover, cup-fed babies stay an average of 10 days
longer in hospital. The lack of clear benefit, combined with the additional
cost of the extended hospital, stay means that cup feeding cannot be
recommended...."
