Composite Layup in ABAQUS: Field output at integration points

Hi all,
I am trying to understand how Composite Layup works in ABAQUS. I have specified 5 integration points for each ply in the Composite Layup definition but I am getting the field output only at 2 integration points in every ply (the top and the bottom-most points). I do not understand this anamoly. Is there some additional definition that we need to give while defining the Layup so as to be able to see the field output (atleast stress) at all the integration points.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance :)
