I have had a few moms over the years with the kind of over-supply Jeanette
describes, and they have been miserable and their baby's have been
miserable.  If I had to do it over again, I think I would try asking their
OBs to put them on estrogen-containing birth control pills for a short
period of time to try to supress their production.  I say this because after
trying sage, cabbage and all the things Jeanette has tried, I found them
similarly ineffective against this kind of over-supply.
