Calories estimate how much energy this milk sample provides based on its measured protein, lactose, and fat. Fat contributes the most energy per gram. Your baby’s total energy intake depends on both the calorie concentration of the milk and the amount consumed. This single sample does not measure total calorie intake.
Total Protein

Protein supplies amino acids that babies use for growth and for building tissues, enzymes, hormones, and immune-related proteins.
Protein-rich foods for breastfeeding moms include:
- Eggs, yogurt, milk, and cheese
- Beans, lentils, tofu, and tempeh
- Fish, poultry, and meat
- Nuts and seeds
Protein naturally decreases as lactation progresses. If you may not be meeting your own protein or overall energy needs, include protein-rich foods regularly and consider guidance from a registered dietitian. If you have concerns about your baby's growth or feeding, contact your baby's clinician or a qualified lactation professional.
