 MOm does not feel like she
was under any extreme stress, except why she was having trouble making
enough milk for her baby.


When I'm confronted with low milk supply my first course of action is to
tell mom to go on bed rest for 48 hours not allowed out of bed for anything
except to go to the bathroom and to shower. Food's to be brought to you.
Baby stays in bed with you feeding as much as possible. If it's stress
related, the supply will go through the ceiling by the end of the 48 hours.
This works especially well when mom thinks she's not in stress, when she
really is. Try it, it doesn't go against dr.'s orders and it's very
effective.
