Chris,
I had to go and look up the reference I used for the "Intake Guidelines" I
had written for the Medela tearoff- Breast Milk Collection and Storage. It
came from one of the Pediatric books I had from nursing school. Before I
looked it up, I knew the answer. Yes, it is based on formula. I got tired
of clients always asking "how much should my baby be taking from a bottle?
So I added in this extra information. Mind you that I have but in there
"average intake". Maybe some day we will have all information we need for
just the breastfeeding baby. Wishful thinking I guess.
