She is anemic - since pregnancy, and takes iron.

Have someone go to a health food store and get a food-based iron
supplement. Her hemoglobin will be restored to health *much* quicker than
with the ferrous sulfate that is in a prescription supplement. Chances are
the anemia is a major cause of her low supply.

read in the archives about Rescue Remedy - is that for supply inc or MER?

Rescue Remedy helps facilitate a MER, which can be useful when building a
supply as it can help with milk removal when pumping or feeding.
