I have searched the archives, and not comeup with an exact match to my
question. Does retained placental fragment always cause almost *no* milk,
or can a mother with RPF have a suppressed milk supply, but more than
"almost none?" Worked with a mom recently who was still bleeding,
cramping, odd dsicharge, and clotting at 5.5 weeks PP, and had experienced
a voraciously hungry and never satisfied baby with slow weight gain, and
borderline low milk transfer (pre and post) for the first five weeks, but
at 6 weeks, when bleeding had stopped, baby doing much better and milk
transfer was normal. could mom have spontaneously passed a tiny retained
placental fragment, resulting in a surge in her milk supply, or does any
size fragment cause extreme suppression of lactation? any thoughts? Thanks!
