Lactation failure

In breastfeeding, lactation failure may refer to:
 * Primary lactation failure, a cause of low milk supply in breastfeeding mothers
 * Cessation of breastfeeding before the mother had planned to stop, usually as a result of breastfeeding difficulties
 * Low milk supply in general
 * Inability to establish breastfeeding, which may be caused by delayed onset of lactation

Lactation failure can result in neonatal jaundice.
