Does anyone know what the effect of a 24 hour fast has on lactation?
Every year before Yom Kippur, I get tons of calls from women wanting to
know if they should or shouldn't fast.  Religious issues aside, what are
the medical cons of fasting for a day?  Is it safe for a pp mother?
I'm more concerned about the fluids than I am with the food.
