Don't worry Linda, what would "HE" know about it My paed told me the same thing but I ignore it.

I totally believe in infant-led feeding, they know when they are hungry and thirsty - would anyone tell a thirsty person to wait an extra hour or two for a drink on a hot day, because they just had a drink an hour or so ago?

Good on you for following your instinct as a mother - it's always right
