What on earth?

Mumsnet advice pages used to be reasonably balanced and evidence based. Saw this shared on Facebook and wondered wtf someone was thinking?

Make it stop before someone tries this bollocks on their new baby!

This is the kind of thing that would have panicked me as a new mother - "try to feed your baby every 3-4 hours", DS was breastfed and therefore fed on demand. There's no way he would have gone 3 hours without a feed for the first few months, never mind 4 hours!

Bring back MorningPaper and her rocket to Lebanon, all is forgiven.

Crikey i just read it! That wouldn't have helped my DS. Slept nowhere apart from on me. Hated being swaddled. Never finished a bottle Hmm
