Hi Mandy & Roza, 

I don't have any references specifically on spoon feeding, but here are a few on cup feeding preemies:

Lang, S., Lawrence, C.J. and L’E Orme, R. Arch of Dis of Child 71:365-369, 1995
Howard, C.   PEDIATRICS Vol. 104 No. 5 Supplement November 1999, pp. 1204-1207
Marinelli et al 2001,  Journal of Perinatology 2001; 21:350-355

Nancy Wight, M.D.  wrote an excellent article on cup feeding: http://www.breastfeeding.org/articles/cup.html


Hope that helps.
