Abstract
Dr. Naeye (Pediatrics, 34:415) has much of interest to say about organ composition in newborn parabiotic twins and neonatal hypoglycemia. He suggests that gluconeogenesis from protein is the source of the glucose which must be necessary after hepatic glycogen is exhausted "since adequate alimentary carbohydrate is often not available for several days." We write only to put forward a practical point.
For the past two years we have conducted a trial of the immediate feeding with undiluted breast milk of infant weighing 1,000-2,000 gm at birth.
