<< Ok you all, I am feeling like I am missing something here so I am asking
you
 for you feedback on this particular case.  I cannot seem to figure out the
 missing piece so I thought I'd ask 2000 of the greatest minds in lactation.

1.  How old is she?
2.  First baby?
3.  Check prolactin levels
4.  Placement of lactiferous sinuses?
5.  Suggestion -- continue to pump, at least until you get prolactin levels
back.  After you get prolactin drawn, try Fenugreek & Blessed thistle OR
Reglan (if no hx of depression) if mom willing to do that.
6.  Continue use of supplementer if you can get baby to take appropriate
amount out of it.
7.  Good luck -- and keep us posted!  I remember one mom who called me, all
excited one morning, "Jan, my milk came "in" at 2:07 am!"  It was day 12.
