Jen, you  need to get in touch with Paula Meier at Rush in Chicago.  She
knows  nifty ways to get more hindmilk into baby.

One way would be for mom to  begin pumping  and then put baby to breast after
letdown, when we know  hind milk is being pushed out.



Dear Colleagues:    
    Foremilk is the milk taken out first before the  feed begins; hindmilk is 
the milk remaining after the feed is finished. Those  are technical terms, 
that I have been told come from the dairy industry.
    Foremilk does not mean low-fat; hindmilk  does not mean high-fat. 
    MERs promote mixing of fat into milk; wouldn't this  statement be more 
accurate if it read, "......... being pumping and then put  baby to breast after 
letdown, when we know more fat is being added to the milk."  ?
    By the way, thanks for the great tip.
    warmly,
