My guess would be that her milk hasn't come in and she's still getting
colostrum, which would be expected since the babies aren't anywhere near
their due date yet. Alli was almost 2 months old before I started getting
really mature milk and before I really started to get engorged, and she
wasn't nearly as "preemie" as these little ones were. Remember, she was
only
a bit over halfway through the pregnancy. Not only were the babies born
prematurely, but normally she wouldn't have had to produce milk for
several
months yet either. Once I started getting mature milk, I could easily pump
12+ oz at a sitting until my supply regulated itself a few months later,
but
those first weeks where I wasn't getting "milk" exactly yet were tough.
And
that was with a much older preemie. I remember calling my LC at one point
in
tears because I was only getting about 12-15 oz a day, and having her tell
me that was actually a LOT of colostrum.

really? I always thought that milk production was triggered by the removal
of the placenta and that it comes in after a similar time regardless of when
the placenta is removed, which is why mums with late losses often have their
milk come in and the engorgement is similar to a full term mum who isn't
breastfeeding, but having not been though it I probably don't understand all
the factors, sorry to ask this, but what happened to you milkwise after
Brian? The only data point I have is a friend who had 34 week twins, and she
produced gallons.
