<Have the mother lie back at less than 30 degrees, or even prone.> I meant supine of course. I am used to referring to the baby's position when using antigravity principle.
BTW, after my tempest in a teapot (apologies), last week, Carolyn Putnam found the actual article. Thanks Carolyn!! I have printed it out and am studying it, and finding lots of interesting things. It was publshed online 18 months ago, but it is so interesting, I think others in the lactation community will want to read the full original too. Any future replications with other populations would be of course, very challenging, but very, very interesting too. Hard to understand different strength (not amounts) milks in same species, but nature is a grand ol' gal!
