Fattier breastmilk?
Any tip or tricks on how to increase fat content in milk? Mine never seems to get a good fat layer. I have a 32oz pitcher and even after sitting for 48 hours, it still barely covers the entire top. My baby has been having some issues with silent reflux and just overall stomach issues. her doctor said it may be a milk imbalance and to make sure she’s really draining the breast when she eats but I have an over supply I feel like it’s almost impossible for her to empty me and if I were to pump after feeding, that would make the over supply worse. When I do pump during the day, I am pumping until empty but don’t really notice a change in the fat layer. I know healthy fats like avocado, olive oil and nuts are good, but I am deathly allergic to nuts so that kinda limits me lol. Any other tips?
