Hey all,I'm seeing two moms & their babies on Thursday (separately), both producing minimal milk, like 5-20 ml. when pumping. Babies (2 weeks-full term, 6 weeks-born at 36 weeks) are almost entirely on formula. I don't have histories for them yet, except that one has an older child whom she breastfed for 3 months and then suddenly her milk dried up. What are the chances of these moms increasing their milk production to even half what their babies need?  I don't know if they are willing to get blood tests, but if so, what to check for?  I'm re-reading all my references and not finding a whole lot. Anyone else notice clusters like this where you have 2+ clients in a row with similar issues? Thanks,Julie Tardos
