Optimizing Milk Production Lecture Pack
Concerns about milk production are the primary reason for supplementing and premature weaning. Because of this, it is essential for health care providers who are supporting breastfeeding families to have a thorough understanding of how milk synthesis works. There are numerous factors to consider including the anatomy of the breast, hormone levels, the baby’s ability to effectively remove milk, the frequency of feedings etc. Join our experts for a focused look at what we know about milk production, how to establish, and maintain it, and specialized situations such as exclusive pumping and relactation.

Topic: Medication and Breastmilk in the NICU - [View Abstract]
Topic: Pharmacokinetics and Clinical Implications of Drugs in Human Milk: The Substance-Exposed Infant - [View Abstract]
Objective 1: Describe why do women perceive they have a low milk supply;
Objective 2: Discuss what herbal or food remedies women recommend to each other and are they effective;
Objective 3: Analyze the evidence behind prescribed medication to increase milk supply.
We know that the most common reason mums stop breastfeeding before they would otherwise choose is because they believe they don’t have enough breastmilk. In many cultures there a herbal remedies to increase milk supply. We have medicinal options available as well. What is the research behind the “magic wands”? Can any products cause harm rather than benefit? When should they be used and when is skilled breastfeeding support more important? Why is some populations is poor milk supply never a concern? Who is responsible for the perceived need to increase milk supply?

Objective 1: Describe what relactation and induced lactation means;
Objective 2: Discuss different goals with mothers;
Objective 3: Discuss how to give mothers lactational support.
If a woman wants to induce their milk supply after a separation or interruption of breastfeeding, she needs support. A lot of support! There are different angles to look at; latching on again and bringing back a sufficient milk supply. But success is not guaranteed…With dedication and preparation, breast-feeding without pregnancy (induced lactation) might also be possible. Annet will discuss different options and will use her experiences with mothers in this topic.

Objective 1: Students will be able to identify 5 ways of confirming good milk transfer;
Objective 2: Students will be able to perform a pre and post weight with a baby and calculate breastmilk transfer;
Objective 3: Students will be able to roughly calculate a baby’s total number of oz or cc they need to consume to grow in a 24 hour period.
Numbers are used all the time in the lactation field. Test weights, percentiles, % of weight gain, are just some of the information that is gathered to help make infant feeding decisions. But what are they really telling us? When are they useful? Using these numbers in a way that actually helps support and promotes breastfeeding are key. Appropriate infant weight gain, how to do a test weight, scale calibration, calculating infant intake, and the possible need for supplementation, will all be covered.

Objective 2: Participants will be shown basic working knowledge of available strategies for measuring milk supply (both synthesis and production), and their limitations;
Objective 3: Participants will learn to choose helpful teaching strategies and counseling styles that will minimize the perceptions of inadequate milk supply.
"I didn't make enough milk!" We hear it on a regular basis from heartbroken new mothers. In fact, this is the number one factor contributing to breastfeeding failure after two weeks of age is a perception of inadequate milk production. This phenomenon of sudden onset lactation failure is widely accepted as a common occurrence among breastfeeding mothers. This topic has been the subject of a number of quality studies that have yielded a conflicting mix of responses from primary health care providers and lactation consultants alike. This discussion will attempt to shed light on the very different concepts of "Milk Production" vs. "Milk Synthesis" and will demonstrate how confusion between those two concepts have clouded the study of milk production, promote the fallacy of "insufficient milk production syndrome", and contribute to the failure of breastfeeding. This presentation will also attempt to provide a preliminary course of action to begin anew in milk production research and perhaps even provide a framework for helping the new mothers facing the milk supply challenge.
