Dear Friends:
    As with every physiologic activity, weight gain must be variable. 
    I remember reading that there is an average range of milk production for 
humans that is between 350cc and 950 cc/24 hours; the average was 750. And all 
the babies thrived, no matter what their mother's daily production was.
    So how can there be a number for volume/unit of weight? It has to be a 
range.
    As women hit their peak production and stay there, the baby continues to 
grow. Women don't keep making more milk. This is part of the magic of 
lactation..............
    warmly,
