Message to Susan Goodridge, NFLD,
If mother has heavy bleeding and clots at three weeks post-partum, she
should also be checked for possible retained placental fragments.  This
may be a reason for her low milk supply, although with all the other
problems going on. any one or combination may be responsible.   Re: Use
of SNS, I suggest taping the tubing beside the mother's nipple using
something like Micropore tape before she prepares to feed the baby.  Tape
should be placed length-wise along tubing rather than across, because it
tends to flip up when placed crosswise.  Good luck.   Eileen Shea
