Hi: I've been reading for years and was encourage by my favorite L.C. to
post my questions. So here goes. I had a mother of a 15 mo old call. This
mother had only nursed for 5 mo. Her concern was after reciving a Depo shot
for birth control she began leeking. I was told by our nurse practitioner
that this is quite common. I have read that Depo has been used in some
cases early on to increase milk production in nursing mothers. This mom had
not nursed in 10 mo.I would like to know how common this condition is. I
have one more question regarding mothers increasing their fluids to help
with jaundice. I was again told by my practitioner that this is helpfull? I
have no infomation on this matter and would like info on how this may work.
I cant figure this out. I understand how dehydration my be a issue but she
stated something about dilation of protein.
