 The intensity of response is
>greatest in prematures of a larger weight.

What a coincidence!  I tried this on premature twins (nice big 6 1/2
pounders)yesterday and was able to get it over and over again in both (one
hand only, I hadn't read your post at the time).  So I started wondering
when this reflex appears and when it fades out, thinking maybe babies born
earlier might exhibit it more strongly than full-term babies (just a
thought)....
