I ALWAYS work to get the supplementing stopped completely, because I've seen
too many Moms who are supplementing only make it as far as whenever the first
big growth spurt is, before they're increasing the supplements instead of
patiently allowing their supply to increase with baby's cues.  Supplementing
messes with supply too much over longterm breastfeeding for me not to assist
mom in stopping the supplements.
