The term foremilk refers to the milk at the beginning of a feeding; hindmilk refers to milk at the end of a feeding, which has a higher fat content than the milk at the beginning of that particular feeding. There is no sharp distinction between foremilk and hindmilk- the change is very gradual. Research from Peter Hartmann's group tells us This is known as foremilk. By the end of a breastfeeding session, the high-fat hindmilk is thicker, richer, and creamier. Discussions about foremilk and hindmilk make it sound like your body produces two different forms of nutrition. The answer is much simpler. You only make one kind of breastmilk, but the milk passes through fine ducts in your Your milk-making cells all produce the same kind of milk. Foremilk is the milk available when your baby starts feeding, hindmilk is the milk your baby gets at the end of a feed. Foremilk is not necessarily low in fat: fat content of the milk that is removed varies according to how long the milk has been collecting in the ducts and how much of Foremilk is the abundant, low fat milk that is available to your baby at the start of a breastfeed. Foremilk has a lower fat content than hindmilk because it has a higher water content. Hindmilk is the milk available to your baby towards the end of a breastfeed. It has a higher fat content than foremilk and lower in volume but more highly Differences in the composition of foremilk and hind milk can cause a difference in color between foremilk and hind milk (Austin et al., 2016; Thomson et al., 2018). Although some studies have analyzed the composition differences between fore and hind milk, most of previous studies focused on protein, fat, and lactose.
