Moms! How do you fatten up your breast milk? Athena is getting sick because of how low fat content my milk is.
@dezziesmomma, Lansinoh makes microwaveable breast compresses that really have helped me with my letdown while I pump. They wrap around your pump. Once I feel I'm really warm I massage my breast the try to get everything out. It's worth a shot
@cubanese oh wow, that's super interesting. Okay, I'll try because her belly is suffering.
@cubanese how much do you think I'd need to hand express before i got to the hindmilk?
@cubanese Her pediatrician, my lactation consultant. I took her in for how she was acting and he told me what was wrong and then to go see my consultant.
@cubanese no she is, we went to the doctor. There's too much lactose, not enough fat and it's making her sick. They told me to fatten up my milk and do block-feeding.
