Hi!

Biggest change around here is Spain I´d say is also the Haakaa..

ALso, in my clinical experience I agree with Shauntée, in that quite a few
women with oversupply that I have worked with are reluctant to really lower
their supply! It is a difficult emotional situation to support, because on
the one hand they are clearly suffering (they and their babies) with the
oversupply), but also they are very afraid of a low milk supply, and they
consider a "normal" milk supply to be low, when they compare it to their
previous excess. These patients take a lot of working on these feelings of
fear, a lot of listening...

On a hypothetical note, I wonder if IVF may play a role in some cases of
oversupply. Perhaps if there had been two embryos but one was lost, that
mother´s body may be aiming to feed twins. Or maybe even though this may be
her first live child to be born, she has been pregnant a couple of times so
her production may be more robust that a primigesta primipara.... I
don't know, just food for thought.

Warmly,
KIka
