hi susan i would not recommend a policy that says baby does not need supp x 24 hrs. this is becoz i think sometimes they do. you would have to take into account the condition of the baby such as "almost preemie", sga, at risk for hyperbilirubinemia, at risk for hypoglycemia etc. what i am saying is that this should be on a case by case basis.
