I have heard that there is a link between delayed lactogenesis and the use of betamethasone prior to delivery. Can anyone verify this, and if so, I would love some references. The use of steroids in moms in premature labor between 24-32 weeks is very high at our hospital, and I'm trying to see if there is a correlation between this and milk supply problems. Thanks!
