Dear Friends:
Twice in the past week now, I have encountered women that conceived
spontaneously, delivered babies, had no retained placental fragments, and never
got any milk. One woman, that I made a home visit for with her 4th baby, never
got any milk with baby #1 and twins of pregnancy #2. Her breasts were
flaccid, and not veined. The other woman had no milk with her 1st baby, and is
presently experiencing the same situation with her second. I saw this woman in
the hospital on postpartum day two and noticed no prominent veining at all.
Neither of them had any breast growth in pregnancy either.
When these women stop breastfeeding and switch to bottles of human
milk substitutes, they don't get engorged and have no breast changes.
How can this be?
warmly,
