Dear experts!
A mom who is diagnosed with PAT - Paroxysmal Atrial Tachycardia is experience
bouts of rapid heartbeat, and is wondering if this is related to BF hormones?
She has a toddler who was also breastfed but did not have the problem then.
However having a toddler, 6 week old, and DH who works many hours would
certainly be a stress factor!  In another breath she has mentioned she wants
the baby to have breastmilk so badly that she will consider asking her cousin,
who has a similar age baby, to donate milk for her. My gut feeling is that
this is not a type of situation that would cause her to be unable to continue
breastfeeding, and perhaps she needs some moral support with some of the
stresses to help this along. Anyone have experience with this?  CC me
privately if possible, I get to those before the digests.  Let me know if I
have permission to share your post with the mom.  Thanks in advance!
                                Sincerely,
