I'm writing in response to Cheryl's post on the doctor who is recommending scheduled feedings for all moms. I would suggest getting a copy of Ann Millard's article "The Place of the Clock in Pediatric Advice" -- it talks about the history of the notion of scheduled feedings, and why pediatricians feel the need to schedule moms. I don't have the full reference at home, but it was in one of the standard journals -- any university library search should turn it up. I'll try to post the full reference later today.
