I'm sorry to say, I can respond to this with personal experience.  I've had 2
miscarriages while nuring my son, the first when he was 19 months old (11 wks
along), the second when he was 30 months old (11.5 wks along).  Both times my
supply decreased during the pregnancy and rebounded just fine afterwards.  My
son has until very recently nursed *at least* 6x/24 hrs.  (Now he occasionally
has days of only nursing 3x/24 h.)  It took about a month or so each time for my
supply to return to "normal" levels, as I perceived that.

You may email me privately if you'd like any further details.

With sympathy,
Margaret
