1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    Oh, the schedule thing is not for moms who have physioligcal OER, (what you appear to have) it is for moms with normal supplies, who are scheduling, and causing an IMBALANCE in the foremilk and hindmilk. What you have is NOT due to scheduling, but just something your body does. Some of us have really strong reflex muscles in our milk ducts, as well as prodigious milk supplies, so we SHOOT milk, which is good, because it keeps the supply up, but bad because it can upset the baby.

    Luckily we have treatments for it now. I didn't know I had this until my second baby was 10 months old. I was reading one of the few lactation texts available in the late 80s and it was like *SMACK* THAT'S what the problem is!!!!
