Doing couplet care , I had a mother who is breastfeeding her 2 day old
infant. she stated that she would probably start giving ABM by 4th day
because of "panic" attacks that start when "my milk comes in". With
previous infant, on the 4th day, she experienced a let-down and it made
her"feet have to get up and go". Both her mother and grandmother also
experience  this type of attack and are on anti-depressives, although
she does not know if they had this experience while breastfeeding.
Some of us feel that this may be related to early childhood abuse? or
perhaps it is hormonal in nature? Her HCP is at a loss to assist her
with this problem. Any help would be appreciated.
