I have heard that pushing a mom's thyroid level into the "high-normal" range 
from a "low-normal" can help if she has a low supply from the 
hypothyroidism, but I have not witnessed it.

Did she have breast changes in pregnancy?  I have seen women with both high 
or low thyroid hormone levels during pregnancy who did not appear to have 
development of milk-making tissue.  They have had low supplies despite 
therapy for their high or low thyroid levels.
