Hello my friends,

I have a question about IgG. Who can help my colleague (who's not on
Lactnet) out?

A mother has an IgG deficiency and gets IgG injected to correct this.
She knows that mothers milk naturally has IgG in it. She wonders if her
mothers milk has the natural IgG too, or does it come from the supplement
or does it lack the IgG completely? She also wonders if her child will have
the same deficiency or what the chance is that the baby doesn't or does
develop it if she breastfeeds him.

Thanks for taking the time to reply...............
