Sorry, I wasn't specific enough.  I have done these things.  Baby 
transferred 25 grams after feeding on both sides together.  Baby also has 
latch issues.  Clamping jaw, semi-weak suck.  slow feeder. He makes loud 
breathing type noises while nursing.  Like he's gasping on the inside.  I 
have had babies that were poor at milk transferring that did this before. 
They just seem to need to grow out of it.  Any other comments about babies 
that make this sound?
I have no doubts whatsoever about her insufficient glandular tissue 
disorder.  They are a classic example, right out of the text book.  I took 
pictures to monitor changes.
