The answer

If the grandmother doubts the number of sucklings or the presence of milk, then the prohibition is not established, because the default is its absence, and doubt does not remove certainty. Nevertheless, it is said that it is better to refrain from marriage as a precautionary measure and to avoid doubtful matters.
