Polycystic ovarian syndrome and breastfeeding

New article on the ABA website - PCOS and breastfeeding

https://www.breastfeeding.asn.au/bfi...-breastfeeding

Gee PCOS is a hoot, isn't?! Your periods will all but disappear, and once you fix that you might need Metformin for your weight and blood sugar. You'll probably need Clomid to fall pregnant, and theres a higher than normal chance you'll miscarry early. Assuming you manage to get through all that and have your very own baby, you may not be able to feed it at the start. Awesome.

Seriously though, thanks for the info MadB - forewarned is forearmed!

Interesting article.

I think i'm the one where it says "some mothers make too much milk".

Good to know about the type 2 diabetes though

I wonder if that was the cause of the problems Amelia and I had in the beginning :think:

So, it has come to this.

I was reading that this morning. Definitely good to know if I do have problems when Shoopy arrives, PCOS may be why. Have my fingers crossed that I'm like my mum though who had enough milk for me plus donated enough that she probably fed 2 other babies.

The oversupply - so me! I could have fed quads and still had leftover!
