Hi Lisa,
I think maybe we are not quite hearing each other? I am saying, more
stress horomes, less oxytocin. We know that in labour, stress if
extememe enough will stop the production of oxytocin to the point
where labour stops. A stressed animal's labour will stop altogether
untill the danger has passed.
Todays mothers are carying more stress than ever before. We are
carrying the stress of modern life in today's dysfunctional world. We
are also carrying the stress of repressed pain and trauma due to the
fact that most of us did not get our baby needs adequately met all all
(this goes back quite a few generations and is steadily increasing).
This unresolved repressed pain is gated in the mid brain and stored in
the amagdala (unless we retrieve it through therapeutic intervention).
The body of a person carrying a heavy load of early deprivation and
unmet needs remains stressed throughout life unless those issues are
dealt with in therapy. People undergoing the deep feeling regressive
therapies show less stress hormones (other than just cortisol) in their
blood (and changes in other vital signs) after resolving a significant
amount of this material.
What I am suggesting is that it is due to this problem we are seeing
more and more mothers with inadequate milk supply due to these
factors, and that this will continue to increase from generation to
generation untill or unless these issues are addressed. KMC
researcher, Nils Bergman, says we are now stresssing mothers and
babies "beyond the limits of adaptability". The words are easy to say,
but the implication are serious indeed.

I think the point made by Bergman above, is that if we continue to carry
on the way we are, it won't!
Just my 2 cent's worth,
