Abstract

Breast-milk consumption has been measured in a rural African community in which breast-feeding on demand is universally practised until the baby is 18 mos old. The mother's long-term capacity for breast-milk production is determined by the end of the second month of lactation, yield being closely correlated with the infant's birth-weight. Other factors significantly influencing output were parity, month of lactation, baby's weight-for-age, season, and maternal diet. Daily milk consumption was limited primarily by the amount delivered per feed, not the frequency of feeding.

摘要

在一个非洲农村社区对母乳摄入量进行了测量，该社区普遍实行按需哺乳，直至婴儿18个月大。母亲长期的母乳分泌能力在哺乳期第二个月末就已确定，分泌量与婴儿出生体重密切相关。其他显著影响母乳分泌量的因素包括胎次、哺乳月份、婴儿年龄别体重、季节和母亲饮食。每日母乳摄入量主要受每次喂奶量的限制，而非喂奶频率。
