Placental retention-vag birth, bright red bleeding never changes per usual
stages for lochia; post surgical retention - slim to none occurance.
Delay of lactation - most common cause -you named it- separation of mother
and baby, lack of breast stim.
Sheehan syndrome is due to really excessive blood loss, I don't think it is
very common.
Preterm delivery -lack of stim. At Children's Hospital of Philadelphia PA,
deliveries are because of something very wrong with baby - will need fairly
immediate surgical repair - pumping begins within 2 hours after vag delivery
and within 4 hours after c sec. Pump early and often!
I was afraid that was what was happening in the cities, intervention where
unnecessary and no intervention when needed in the countryside :-( Sad
commentary on the medical profession. Pat in SNJ
