I am getting milk drops but mostly when I hand express, not with the pump.. Should I do the protocol or will the dom and herbs and pumping get me there?? Thanks..

It certainly won't hurt <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Adoptive mommy to 4 , Last 2 adopted nursed. Youngest nursed till she was 5!

After the 30 days you stop the bcp keep up the dom add herbs and start pumping. Laurie~Craig's wife~Mom to 4 blessings nurtured at the breast CJ(24)Travis(21)Beka~adopted(9)Rab(6)
