Moms! How do you fatten up your breast milk? Athena is getting sick because of how low fat content…

Hand expression!

Or massaging your breasts while pumping/nursing. It helps "loosen up" the fat

I've also had great results using milky mama treats. My code gets you 10% off

@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.

@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 how much do you think I'd need to hand express before i got to the hindmilk?

@cubanese oh wow, that's super interesting. Okay, I'll try because her belly is suffering.

@cubanese thanks!

@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

@mswedes that sounds really nice and relaxing. you get it at Wal-Mart?

@dezziesmomma, I got mine at babies r us but Walmart has them
