Kathy,
After reading your post I wondered how common is it for mothers in your area
to use a pharmaceutical galactagogue. It really surprised me that a drug to
increase milk supply would be discussed (commonly?) in an ordinary mother's
group. This should be something that is helpful only rarely shouldn't it? Is
basic breastfeeding physiology ie supply/demand stuff discussed too?
