Am curious PTP -- a mother with 35 week twins 3 days old. History of IVF (premature ovarian failure) and Crohns Disease. Twins are second pregnancy. 2 year old sibling. Mom states she pumps regularly, and feels milk (I feel decent mammary development)- got engorged with baby #1 - but never gets it to come out even with direct breastfeeding.
Anyone have an idea of root cause? Could it be the infertility? Could it be Crohns?
Thanks in advance for your ideas. Mom will be buying donor milk (YAY!) and feeding newborns with whatever she can pump plus donor milk, so they are doing fine. We are just trying to trouble shoot what her challenge is so others can learn too.
