I have worked with one gastric bypass who also did not gain wt. The ped thought the gastric bypass would have no impact on her milk. I saw her after her milk came in and the latch was good and about 2 ounces was transferred during a 30 min feeding. Another ped in the same group thought along my line of thinking that there may not be enough fat in the milk. Mom supplemented and last I spoke to her at 2 months she was putting infant to breast at every feeding but also cont. to supplement and that was fine with her. Sally A.
