Is this mom charting?  I'd suggest this as a first step.  This way, she'll
know better what's going on with her cycle and can go from there.
Considering that her periods seemed regular for a couple of months prior to
going down to nurinsg 1x per day, I doubt that it's nursing.

I know far far far too many ppl who nurse alot more than that, nurse through
pregnancies etc.

Charting is the only way she'll know for sure what's going on.  I recommend
