Hi All,

So do you think the latest idea that emptying the breast as much as possible 
at a feeding then still does increase the fat content of the breastmilk at the 
next feeding?  I thought that was what the research was showing(that is 
lately until it changes again!)?  There are lots of moms I'm dealing with lately 
that are concerned about their babys' low weight gain, though some of the 
babies are healthy anyways, meeting developmental milestones and happy, 
content,etc.  I'm looking for a concrete plan I can tell them that I feel 
confident will help increase the fat of their breastmilk.  It's frustrating the info 
seems to change frequently and I want to make sure I'm giving them the best 
info possible!  I'd love to know some more of your thoughts.  TIA

Wendy Beals, PL,LLL
