I need some advice about a mom I  am now working with. She has a history
of overproduction. It was so bad that she only survived a couple of
months with her second child and then weaned after a bout of mastitis.

She now tells me, at four days postpartum, that she is feeding baby
every two-three hours, is severly engorged, pumps off about two ounces
after each feed with a manual pump, and twenty minutes later she is
"full again."

She seems to know what she is talking about...I mean this is not just
your normal overfullnes related to milk coming in.

Any suggestions? I'm going out to do a home visit on her tomorrow.
