So, now my question is, could it be possible to somehow treat  mother's milk
in the same way that the proteins are broken down in  Nutramigen?  Is it
possible to add some kind of digestive enzyme to  her milk before feeding to
start the breakdown process?  If it could  be possible to treat mom's milk,
then it might be possible to continue the  breastfeeding relationship and
babe would still receive all the wonderful  components of breastmilk, that
just can't be  duplicated:)





Moms of babies with cystic fibrosis use a little breastmilk to "glue" the  
enzymes onto their areola prior to nursing.  Could not the same thing be  done 
in this situation?
