Well I talked to mom today.  Great news...in her words,  she has "sprung a 
leak"  She is tickled to death.  Baby was well  satiated at the breast except 2 
times.  and she supplemented with abm after  those 2 nursings.  She thanked 
you all for your input and me as well for  not giving up on her.  I still 
advised her to see someone to get some pre  and post feeding weights, just to see 
where we are.  However, she says  things are "pouring out" and is very happy.  I 
also advised her to  nurse baby as long as possible and to try to abstain 
from the bottle here  out.  She understands the supply/demand issue.  Could the 
delay in let  down have anything to do with her csection and hence her fluid 
overload?   Thanks for all your input.  Will update you on her progress.  I 
think  I may have had my first "long distance" success story!!!
