Hello Lactnetters!

I have been successfully helping mothers with foremilk-hindmilk imbalance
based on information I learned through the grapevine and also from the LLL
Breastfeeding Answer Book (2003). This is where, for several feedings, the
mother offers the same breast each time baby is hungry so as to empty out
as much hindmilk as possible. Then the next several feedings are from the
other breast. And so on.

It has worked for many many moms with symptoms of oversupply. None of the
mothers have complained of any complications fromthis pattern of feeding.

Does anyone know of research that supports this recommendation?

Your comments are welcomed on or off list.

Thanks.
