I wonder if there is a difference in milk production with spontaneous vs. elective abortions? Is it possible that the body, in prep to spontaneously abort, puts a damper on milk production. With an elective when all is physiologically progressing well, is milk production more likely? Just wondering... I recall reading somewhere that there is a definite connection to breast cancer & elective abortion (particularly with 1st pregnancy), but not a connection to breast cancer with spontaneous abortions.
