Victoria, that is so cool!  I've been told that a lot of good breastfeeding
research is done in other countries and not here. :-(  

What you read addressed the rate at which the growing mammary gland
continues to grow into the mammary fat pad. I am especially interested in
the idea of "displacing" fat and would love to know how many of those
breasts changed in size on the outside. One of my theories regarding the
mothers who don't experience breast changes but do go on to have normal
supplies (as reported by Hartmann) is that they really do experience
glandular growth, only it is offset by fat loss for a net outside (cup size)
change of zero. 

I would love to read this article! Wouldn't it be fascinating to do this
kind of research with "normal" vs "questionable" moms/breasts?  Especially
moms with infertility and other high risk problems.
