the difference between 28 and 40 ounces is quite a bit of a
range. And still would allow for less than 6 oz. at a feed if the baby
is fed a minimum of 8 times a day. 

Dear Friends:
    Kent et al reported that women make between 440 to 1220 grams in 24 
hours. (Also quite a bit of a range!) All their babies thrived. ("Breast volume and 
milk production during extended lactation in women"  Exp. Physiology 1999; 
84: 435.)
    How could anyone even imagine trying to find the exact amounts a baby 
"should" take at a feed?
    warmly,
