TL;DR;

Babies may lose weight during breastfeeding because they don't always get enough hindmilk, which is rich in nutrients. Mothers may not allow babies to suck long enough to reach the hindmilk, which leads to them only consuming foremilk, which is mostly water.

Key Impact Areas

Importance of hindmilk in providing essential nutrients

Patience during breastfeeding to ensure baby receives hindmilk

Understanding the difference between foremilk and hindmilk

Challenges

Mothers not being patient enough during breastfeeding

Babies not getting enough hindmilk
