Hi,

I have a new mom, just delivered yesterday. This woman was partially 
paralyzed on the left side of her body at the age of 17. the paralyzation was 
the result of a stroke after her carotid artery was split in half.  She has three 
other children. With every child, she has had her milk dwindle down to nothing 
after 2 months postpartum. She breastfeeds 8-12 x per day, does not give 
bottles or pacifiers, etc.

What could be the correlation between this traumatic event and milk supply 
problems, if anything? Am I missing something?

Thanks!
