Hi all, I have a mother with a 14 wk old with prune belly syndrome and a few other problems ,including an intrarenal fungal mass, who is concerned about the color of her milk. With her older child, whom she nursed for 2 yrs, it was the typical bluish-white color with a thick amount of cream. With this child she says that even when it has been in the refrigerator it doesn't separate as much and is cream-colored. Child has not gained weight in the last week. Birth weight 5 1/2 lbs as a 7 week preemie but now he is a whopping 13 pounder even with a poor latch. He prefers to suck on nipple but with the problems mom doesn't want to interfere too much. Within 10 sec of latch he ahs a 1:1 ratio of suck/swallows with gulping and overflow. Finishes nursing in 6 min. LC in prior hospitalization instructed her to double-pump q 3 hr for 10 min so she wouldn't lose her milk . She produced up to 10 OZ (!!!) a session and has 376 8-oz bags of EBM in her deep freezer! Personally I don't think that the color of the milk is a problem, but she had known about Lactnet and is interested in what you'all think. I have encouraged her to feed from one breast/feeding, pump for comfort only when needed (she's had mastitis X3) heat & massage any hard areas immediately. Any comments or suggestions?
