Thank you for the statistics, Anne.  Theresa, for the mother with the question that you brought to the group, it will also be important to help her look at the larger picture - a) we don't really know where she will fall in these statistics, b) she is early in her pregnancy and should be encouraged to continue breastfeeding, c) any loss in volume is usually gradual, d) the decrease in supply may be matched by the baby's readiness for solids allowing any decrease in breastmilk to be covered by baby's increased intake of solids (dependent, of course, on baby's developmental signs of readiness for solids), and, d) if willing, she could begin a routine of pumping after feedings to help stimulate a greater supply now and to collect milk to be given baby later if needed.
