I tell moms their milk is a product of their blood.  "How's your blood doing
these days?  Holding you upright?  Keeping you conscious?  You feel okay?
Then your milk's fine."  Pretty simple-minded, but really!  If a woman with
cystic fibrosis produces good milk, these docs would need to explain to me
the mechanism by which an otherwise normal woman with normal fat intake
produces oddball milk.
