Yes, and my experience has been the same as yours.  One mom couldn't 
understand why her abdundant milk supply was dwindling.  At first she didn't 
notice, but once she reviewed history she remembered baby had stopped 
gaining as he once was.  Over and Over we would go over every possiblity.  I 
asked her if she was back on the pill.  Light bulb moment!  She never 
attributed the subtle weight loss to the timing of starting the pill.  No wonder 
he's waking up at night to nurse etc.  Poor baby it was so subtle no one 
noticed until they went for a weight check.  NO MORE PILLS for that mom.

Sorry to hear about your case.  But their is a known risk higher than what the 
MD's care to admit or maybe they don't know...but these moms think their milk 
is drying up and don't know why.  Very unfair.. So I hear you and agree 100% 
with the lo dose mini pill.  Nothin mini about the effect on most moms milk 
supply....

best wishes,
Robin
