#1 There is a misleading post circulating suggesting a newborn's stomach is larger than medical textbooks say it is. It suggests that the volume at 40 weeks could be 33ml rather than approx 7ml. Based on this it incorrectly claims colostrum is not enough and top ups are needed #2 There are many things wrong with this. These figures are taken from 1 baby during an ultrasound.
