> I just received an inquiry from a mother who has a 1.5 lb. premie in the

> pump her milk to save for the baby, etc.  However, she told the mother
> that when the EDC comes around, her milk supply will go down again, and
> will need to be built back up.  I have never heard that before, and
> thought that with the delivery of the infant, the hormones peak no matter
> if you are around your due date or premature.  Please correct my ignorance
> here if I am missing something!  I'd like to call this mom back with good
> information before the weekend.  Thanks!!
