Episode Synopsis

Foremilk and hindmilk are all over the internet when you’re trying to find the answers to if your baby is getting enough milk. Some sources suggested keeping your baby at breast for a specific amount of time but what’s actually most important is how your baby feed. It’s much more important than how long they feed for and I’ll explain why.

In today's episode I cover:

What foremilk and hindmilk are
If your baby should spend a specific number of minutes feeding
How fat content changes
How to best tell if they're drinking milk
Why your baby's diapers matter
