I am posting for a mother who is nursing her third baby and has 
problems after each child, with early return of menses (as early as 
1 month).  I have sought some advice privately from some of the 
Lactnet resources and have checked the archives.  I have been 
unable to find information to fit her needs.  This mother is a stay-at-
home mom with RN background and is very knowledgeable.  Her 
period has returned early (1-3 months) with each child, despite 
full-time breastfeeding/night fdgs.  She has had supply issues and 
impaired MER during her period.   Pumping has not improved the 
issue.  Her supply and MER are not effected at other times of the 
month.  This baby seems to balk at the taste at the milk also (he is 
now 7 months old).  Taste is suspected because it he balks with 
milk pumped at this time also.  In the past, the mother has used 
Oxytocin nasal spray, but, for personal reasons, does not want to 
use that now.  Someone had suggested calcium and magnesium 
supplements to me.   Any suggestions for her are appreciated.

Thank you!
Barb Whynaucht, RN, IBCLC
