I don't know for sure, but I think with the correct stimulation you should be able to encourage lactation again. Have you got a breast pump? I would invest in one of those if you haven't.

Also, there are a load of foods you can eat to help with milk production. Oats, almonds. I was advised to take fenugreek supplements (bought them in Holland & Barratt), they made me stink but my milk supply increased.

As for eczema, I've heard great things about Child's Farm Toiletries, and I've used baby Aveeno products on my son.

Best of luck!

If there is a la Leche league group in your area then they may be able to help you, otherwise there is advice on this in the la Leche league handbook. The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding amazon.co.uk/dp/1905177402/...
