Abstract
These preliminary results highlight the complex relationships between maternal BMI, increase in breast volume and 24 h milk production, and suggest that BMI and breast growth are potentially important indicators of milk production. Further investigations of these inter-related factors may inform interventions aiming at achieving normal milk production in women with higher adiposity.
