>Hi All,

>Dr. Hartmann explained foremilk-hindmilk variations in some detail at a
conference last January. There is still a difference in fat content before
fore and hind milk, but the major differences in fat content relate to the
degree of emptiness of the breast. For example, a woman with fairly small
storage capacity .......<snip>

I never heard of this... "storage capacity" of a breast... Oddball question:
then does this explain why some women are able to produce larger VOLUMES of
milk than other women, or why some babies might want to feed more often than
others? Or am I getting this whole concept wrong?

Educate me!

Answer: "kind of". The LC that I first contacted told me to simply, "wait".
Yea, right. Wait.

I got in touch with another... who was much more helpful. But no one has
been able to solve this prob. as of yet...

But, no. No one thinks any one on one contact at this point would do
anything positive. Very frustrating.
