Bravo, Heather, you said
<<If we go along with hunt-the-calories, and make it easier to do so, you can
bet your bottom dollar that for some hcps, this will be the first thing
they suggest when there's any doubt about a baby's weight gain - even when
that doubt is spurious, and based on zero understanding of breastfeeding
and growth>>
<<Okay, testing breast milk is interesting and probably even valuable if
you're doing an academic project. But IMHO the whole notion of testing an
individual's milk in order for it to pass some unknown or cow's milk-based
norm should have a health warning stamped right across it.>>
ps - you are *not* paranoid
There has to be another way to show a paed/hcp that breastmilk should not be
up before the judge.
