Here's what I found - "Research has shown that the benefits of breastfeeding are generally dose-related: the more breastmilk, the greater the benefit. But even 50 ml of breastmilk per day (or less – there is little research on this) will help to keep your baby healthier than if he received none at all. In fact, the immunities in mom’s milk have been shown to increase in concentration as the quantity of milk decreases." - Kellymom </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-better-more-now-or-more-longer#post-738683 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 06:52:22 +0000 T.H.O.U. 738683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the thought is more longer. I forget but I think Kelly mom has the amount listed (something like 2 bottles per day) in order to get the benefits. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-better-more-now-or-more-longer#post-738547 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 00:46:29 +0000 MaisyMay 738547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How much breast milk does LO need to benefit? Is it better to have more milk and less formula now or to get less milk daily but longer? Do you have any research sources?</p> <p>Help! </p>
