Linda,
 
the way you handled the situation I would think that mom will be back  to see 
you, or will want to anyway, ...and, the crying mom did was a good  sign.
 
 
...you reassured her of all the things she is doing well in mothering her  
baby, ....really one of the best parts of the LC job.
 
sometimes a mom is doing all the right things she has control of and still  
not make enough milk, 
 
ie, as you say: <<its possible that she doesnt have enough mammary  
structure within the breast to produce enough.>>

 
<<Mom breastfeeds 24/7, almost literally! >>
 
so baby is hungry?, ...sns good idea along with your other  suggestions
 
wondering: hx of fertility issues, or mom on any meds/bcps that may be an  
additional factor?
