I think I'd encourage this mom to visit a mother support group (like LLL) during
pregnancy as well as give her factual information about good lactation
management. Then see her asap after delivery and follow up in the first days. I
wouldn't start on galactogogues before other factors have been ruled out.
Visiting a MSG would be very beneficial for this mom, so she'll see
breastfeeding practiced and get emotional support.
