Kelly Bonyata (BS, IBCLC) of the
website Kelly Mom, says, «It's important to note that the feel of the breast, the
behavior of your
baby, the frequency of nursing, the sensation of let - down, or the amount you pump are not valid ways to determine if you have enough milk for your
baby.»
From La Leche League's
website, «Research has shown that healthy, full - term breastfeeding infants have a remarkable ability to regulate their own milk intake when they are allowed to nurse «on cue» and that mothers» rates of milk production are closely related to how much milk their
babies take... Human beings have survived and flourished because mothers have met these needs by responding freely to their
babies» cues and
behavior, particularly their feeding
behaviors.»
