| | Neonatology on the Web: The Nursling - Pierre Budin - Lecture 8 |
 | | On April 9, 1898, the mother's supply having finally ceased, the nursling was given a daily allowance of 800 grams, which, on April 16, was raised to 900. |
 | | The nursling was then returned to its parents, and they, despairing of finding a wet-nurse whose milk was not what they called "too old," fed it on the bottle, and it died of diarrhoea. |
 | | The first nursling, like the wet-nurse's own child, could be put on mixed feeding, and the new-comer given the breast exclusively. |
