If high bloodsugar levels cause colick, that would mean that milksugar
levels would be raised by moms' high bloodsugar levels. Does anyone have
read anything about that? I can't recall having heard of it and as a matter
of fact, don't think it's true.
To the main topic of BF by a diabetic mom. I also heard doctors explain that
the more levelled hormone balance in lactating mothers makes it often more
easy to set her personal amounts of insulin needed and to keep them under
control as long as she is lactating 100%. Insulin suppletion should than
start to decline slowly, intune with the decreasing amount of milk made.
