Background/Objectives: Optimal infant growth is reliant on the sufficient intake of human milk. Studies in animal models speculate that multiparous mothers produce a higher milk yield compared to primiparous mothers. We aimed examine if there are relationships between consecutive lactations and demographics both maternal 24 h production (MP) (MI). Methods: Lactating 1–6 months postpartum (n = 36; 25 fully breastfeeding (FBF), 11 supplementing with commercial formula (partly (PBF)) test-weighed their infants for during two provided demographic information. Twenty-four-hour MP by breast, MI (including mothers’ own expressed formula), expressing frequencies were measured. The statistical analysis used linear mixed modelling accounting birth weight (FBF) or time (PBF) random effect participant. Results: In FBF group, no differences terms (p 0.31) mother’s 0.14). was lactation 0.008). Infant sex not associated 0.12) 0.090). PBF frequency 0.042), 0.025) 0.019) whilst lower 0.004). Conclusions: This study suggests women, significant established lactation.
