Jane -- I don't know of any studies on this -- does anyone else?  However, I
do know that I have seen it, particularly with women who have to go "over the
top" to get pregnant (in-vitro, GIFT, etc).  Not always -- some of these
ladies produce quite a lot of milk and do fine.  But some simply don't.  It's
a question I always ask, just so I can tick it off as one of my red flags and
watch them more closely.
