Dear Friends:
    I worked with a woman that had a postpartum  hemorrhage at 5 days. She
received two units of blood. Her milk supply  disappeared. With pumping, an SNS,
and support, her supply took 3 weeks to  return in full.
    Lawrence says one can never predict what will  happen to supply after
hemorrhage. Several healthcare professionals  had told this woman to quit
breastfeeding....
    warmly,
