Rather than look at dietary manipulation as first line, I would consider
using breast massage before and during feeding (there is research on
this that shows fat increase), feeding one breast per feeding or using
breast compression during a feed.  Maybe I read the first message too
fast - is this a slow gaining baby or just mom who is concerned about
her milk? A creamatocrit is easily done; similar to a hematocrit which
will show fat content if she is concerned.
