Greetings everyone. First I want to thank all of you who responded to
my request for rebirthing info. The video "Mandy and Matt" is exactly
what I need!
Well now this same mom tells me today she is pregnant! She had noticed
a decreased milk supply and was put on reglan by one of our docs prior
to realizing what was going on. I recommended discontinuing the drug
immediately. Has anyone worked with a mom in this situation before? The
baby (an ex ~27 weeker) is still requiring mostly gavage feeds and mom
is just about keeping up with the demand. Breastfeeding remains ok but
inconsistent, does poorly with the bottle. Do you think she`ll be able
to keep providing milk for her little one? She`s really shocked by this
turn of events and is experiencing mixed emotions. I would think that
breastfeeding/pumping wouldn`t be a contraindication for her, because
she did not have preterm labor, but was sectioned for her complications.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks Again!
