Some of you have asked for the references I used in my letter-to-the-editor
of American Baby Magazine on frequency of feeds and how long it takes for a
baby's stomach to empty. The following three citations will hopefully be
helpful to you:

Cavell B: Gastric emptying in infants fed human milk or infant formula. Acta
Paediatrica Scandanavia 1981; 70:639

Pildes RS, Blumenthal I, Ebel A. Stomach emptying in the newborn. Pediatrics
1980; 66:482-483

Newell SJ, Chapman S, Booth IW: Ultrasonic assessment of gastric empyting in
the preterm infant. Archives of Disease in Childhood 1993; 69:32-36
