Alicia,
Great thought, but you see, Ezzo believes that increasing feeding/pumping
beyond every 3 to 3 1/2 hours will NOT increase milk supply. Nor will using
a supplementer. I can't remember how he gets to this conclusion, but it is
very firmly stated in the readings.
"Certainly a mother who takes her baby to breast 7 times a day will produce
more milk than the one who offers only one feeding. However, there are
limits. A mother who takes her aby to her breast 12, 15, or 20 time a day
will not necessarily produce any more milk than the mom who takes her baby to
breast 6-7 times a day." Preparation for Parenting, p. 89.
