I, too, have worked with mothers whose milk did disappear at around 3-4 months.  Nothing to indicate any mismanagement, we tried several galactogogues, super switch feeds and more often, pumping, etc.  It seems to me that once the milk production is not being exclusively by hormones, and moves into the supply and demand phase, somehow production stops.  Theses women have no indication of hypoplasia, at least that i understand.  and their supply to begin with is small.  these are mothers with several children and the pattern continues with each one.
