When your interventions do not always help increase milk
production it may be genetic! Mutation of the protein ZnT2 which transports zinc in specific
body tissues Low Zn in milk Reduced mammary gland development Functional problems
ZnT2 transports zinc by importing it into vesicles -- small organelles within the cell -- that then secrete zinc into the breast milk.
Zinc is also necessary to trigger the growth of mammary glands, mammary epithelial cells and secretion pathways.
Without functional ZnT2, zinc accumulates in the cytoplasm, becoming toxic to the cell.

The immune response is blunted and
underdeveloped in the premature infant, but human milk supports the infant's growth, function, and effectiveness.
Thus, own mother's colostrum (OMC) administered oropharyngeally has potential todeliver oral immune therapy (C-OIT) even before enteral feedings have begun.
Colostrum interacts with lymphoid tissue in the oropharynx and gut.

#6 The Bibi Cam
BiliCam is a smartphone-based non-invasive medical device that uses the on-device camera to monitor jaundice in newborns.
It requires a color calibration card that can be printed by the user at any of the color-calibrated printers such as FedEx Kinko’s, CVS, etc.
The technology is based on the analysis of newborns’ images collected in a standardized way on the phone.
The color data in the image are used to estimate the bilirubin level.

Increased milk volume seen in mothers using acupressure The acupoints used were GB20 (in a depression between
the upper portion of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and the trapezius on the same level with GV16), acupoint LI4 (on the dorsum of the hand, between 1st and 2nd metacarpal bones), and acupoint SI1 (1 cun posterior to the corner of the nail on the upper side of the little finger).
The mothers were educated to press the acupoints in both sides of the body three times a day, each time for 2-5 min, and for 12 sequential days.
The level of pressure was so as to pail the nail of the pressing thumb

Better fit by customizing the flange to the breast?
As 3D printing processes improve, maybe we can take advantage of new technology to help avoid problems and increase efficiency

It will allow the smartphone controlled pump to change the rhythm of its pumping action.

It's not the breastmilk that has a vitamin D deficiency, it's the dietary vitamin
D recommendation for the lactating mother!
The common notion that low concentrations of vitamin D in human milk is a defect in design has prompted the recommendation for vitamin D supplementation for breastfeeding infants starting within days after birth.
This misconception was revealed in a study that supplemented the lactating mother with 6400 IU of vitamin D per day. The problem is not in the composition of human milk but in the dietary vitamin D recommendation for the lactating mother. The current recommendation of 400 IU per day for the lactating woman is insufficient to maintain blood concentrations of the parent vitamin D compound. This results in minimal vitamin D transfer into breastmilk. The resulting deficiency in the breastfed infant, especially darker-pigmented infants, can be significant.
With appropriate vitamin D intake, the lactating mother can fully transfer to her milk the vitamin D required to sustain optimal vitamin D nutrition in the nursing infant with no additional supplementation required for the infant.
