Q. hi..breast milk is of two types , foremilk and hindmilk. when my child starts sucking, after 10/15 minutes he falls asleep, which means he is getting only the foremilk which is very watery and is deprived of the thick milk i.e. hindmilk which comes out after 10/15 minutes of sucking. is just having foremilk enough for my baby's needs?
