Dear Lactnet Friends: All humans have days of greater (or lesser) appetite. Think of women, the week before their menses start. Our appetite increases during that week. Think of a toddler that every now and then eats twice as much as we eat in a day. This study from Hornell and Aarts found that exclusively breastfed babies did have high frequency days, but they occurred at random intervals. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10102156 warmly, -- Nikki Lee RN, BSN, Mother of 2, MS, IBCLC, CCE, CIMI, ANLC, CKC Reviews Editor,* Clinical Lactation* www.nikkileehealth.com https://www.facebook.com/nikkileehealth *Communications are confidential and meant only for whom they are addressed.* *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
