Hi Jan,

It is interesting that you are seeing almost the same amount of pitocin and
epidurals in your area, and a lot of low milk supply.

I too accept the idea that overhydration delays Lactogenesis II.

As for the news item you quoted:  "exposure to toxins in the environment was
leading to an increase of insufficient mammary tissue -- women who are in
areas of high exposure are at risk of not developing enough functional
breast tissue."  Do you have a link or study that goes into that more?  I
would love to read more.  Thanks!
