Hyperemesis linked to low milk supply?

Just wanted to run a quick poll.

Did you have hyperemesis - or sickness way past the 'norm' - then have a low milk supply once baby was born?

Or were you flowing and plentiful?

Only asking, as I recently mentioned to two others who suffered during their pregnancies, then both had low milk supplies and skinny babies (as I did).

Anyone else?

(Just posted this in 'Pregnancy', the thought it'd be better here).

I had severe hyperemesis in both pregancies (hospitalised for 4 weeks, lost 2 stone in weight) DS1 was 10 pounds and DS2 11 pounds, milk supply fine if anything I have an over supply.

I was fine, loads of milk. But my appetite came straight back after babies were born and I know this is not everyone's experience.
