Rob:

 I certianly do not think that a baby/infant/child ona nursing strike should
be let to go thirsty or hungry... I might suggest that feeding method NOT
include sucking means...

  I believe that most if not ALL the time nursing strikes are emotional
issues... yes, there are exceptions where stikes are brought on by illness...

  Some years ago katie winchell had an article in jhl on nursing strikes.. it
is worth hunting up and reading... well look for the vol if you need it.
