I'm going nomail because of deadlines.  Please feel free to e-mail me
privately about anything.  Before I leave (temporarily) I must share
with you the success a mother is having with Fenugreek.  She had a 25
week premie who has had multiple health problems and is just now (10
weeks out) starting feedings by mouth.  This mother contacted me
beginning 4 weeks ago for "no milk".  We did the usual, followed by a 14
day course of Reglan (ala R. Lawrence), increasing skin contact, all to
no avail.  Imagine pumping for weeks and getting drops ast each sitting!
She met with me Tuesday so I could tell her why her breasts were still
not producing. I told her about Fenugreek and shared the info I have
gotten from lactnet and left it up to her to get it or not.  She got it
and, within 24 hours!!, her breasts had started to fill up.  I will keep
you posted about the success of this but I'm excited!
