Just wanted to add something that I picked up on Lacnet, which I've 
shared several times, when mothers have reached the mystical 1-year 
point, after which their milk turns to water....  

Perhaps this toddler has problems with the transition to a good range 
of  nutrient-dense, complementary foods (swallowing issues? 
power-struggles or stress over meals? ) but this mother can at least 
feel that her milk is a nutrious part of the diet.
