had a mom and infant bf have the symptoms of foremilk/hindmilk, oversupply (overactive let-down) syndrome. We used the treatment of bf on one breast per feeding which showed improvement. This was about 2 mo. ago. Today i heard from her again . She informed me that she had ran out of prenatal vitamins for 2 days and claimed that her baby was like another child happy, sleeping at night and no problems. She then started taking her prenatal vit. and the fussiness and gassy symptoms returned. She discontinued the vit again and 2 days later the infant was again happy and without symptom.
Has anyone ever heard of this happening with the use of prenatal vit? This is a new one on me.
What do you suppose is the most likely part of the vitamins that would cause this baby to have these symptoms.?????????????? These were otc vitamins.(prenatal)
Mom and I are curious about this and we will be waiting for answers. Thanks ahead of time. Also can e-mail priviately.
This infant is now 4 months old.
