The baby sleep cycle is becoming more apparent now, the precise opposite of PP's, including waking at about two or three a.m., presumably for the equivalent of a feed.
Seems to me that humans have a significant evolutionary disadvantage in having such helpless infants, which need feeding so frequently. How did our ancestors roaming the savannah cope with noisy, waking infants at night? Did cro-magnon and neanderthal humans follow Gina Ford or Tracy Hogg when Bringing Up Baby?
Vexed questions. I prefer the littoral theory of human evolution. See http://www.sondela.co.uk/ and http://johnhawks.net/weblog/topics/pseudoscience/aquatic_ape_theory.html a truly fascinating site, with a beautifully clear description and analysis of the acquatic theory.

EASY feeding before birth?
It is quite clear that there is a link not only between PP's need for food but also the baby kicking.
The EASY theory of baby routine (Eat, Activity, Sleep, Your time) says that after feeding, the baby should be active before sleep. There is no question that Toblet kicks like a mule after Priti eats, which I guess corresponds to Activity.
What I wonder is, if PP were to follow the EASY routine - or at least the EAS part of it) before d-day, then would he or she follow the EASY routine more, well, easily?
