>Why would she have her prolactin
>levels tested on day one?
Sorry, pregnant lady not making herself clear AGAIN! lol. Not from day one,
she was having supply troubles in the beginning, baby was doing ok at the
breast, but she never could feel a let down. Went to a check up for the
babe and was told that he wasn't gaining well enough and they actually
suggested that she move totally to formula. She was completely against this
so she decided to supplement for a wile with an SNS. She pumped in addition
to nursing on demand and could only get about 2-4 ounces a DAY. So after
talking with her dr., they tested her prolactin. That's when she was told
that the levels were terribly low. Does that make more sense? Also she's
been tested for placental particles, nothing was found, her menses have
returned.
One other question... in a mom that has low prolactin with one birth, does
that mean she will always have it?
