Wanted to add a personal experience... I have been skimming all of the oversupply posts. I exclusively breastfed my first two and am now bf'ing my third. This time I have too much milk... my breasts never feel empty. The cause?? Two weeks of nicu! He was born at 34 weeks after a bad amnio that ended up with an emergency csection. I pumped my heart out to ensure that I made enough milk. I ended up with waaay too much and donated most of it to an adoptive mom. But since then, I have never had to go through a growth spurt with him, no all day nursing sessions, like my first two! It is also taking me a lot longer to lose that stored fat! grr! I am convinced that all of that pumping made my body think that I had triplets or something and it is still making way too much milk! I also have a heavy let down but I deal with it with a very deep latch. My son also has a cleft so he requires a deep 'plug' anyway. Just wanted to share about my confused boobs! lol I will be sure not to pump as much, if there ever is a next time! *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
