Personal experience only here, repeated bouts of mastitis, plugged ducts
with 4th baby. Yes, I would notice a supply decrease. I figured it was
brain telling breast, slow down, something is going on down there. The flip
side is decreased supply led to more frequent nursing by baby boy and supply
usually picked back up to normal by time breast felt better. After the
first bout or 2 I didn't use antibiotics. Just heat, rest and frequent
emptying - straight from WABF in 1966. :-)
Now I can't quote you on anyone else's experiences. Not sure if there is any
research on topic either. Pat in SNJ
