# I was sure I had heard somewhere that breastmilk changes depending
on whether your child is a boy or a girl (now obviously I know it
changes from baby to baby, but I'm assuming this is a measurable
difference in milk for a boy versus for his sibling sister or
something along the lines). Does anyone know if there is a reference
for this, and if so, where? #
I found the link which I was thinking about - but is this the same you
were looking for, Fio?

" /---/ sons were not only given more milk, but the milk was also
three percent higher in protein concentration than what females were
given. /---/ "
