I stopped taking the fenugreek about a week ago now so that leaves pumping every 3 hours...about 4-5 times a day, depending. I started the dom today, 30 mg 3x daily.
Should I continue the pumping or should I wait, then restart pumping?
The Dom has worked and I'm getting about a tablespoon of milk now during pumping. I would like to begin the task of getting my son back on the breast but I'm having no luck with the things I've tried. I've tried offering him the breast and even placing it in his mouth and trying to 'shot' some milk in his mouth so he knows...but nothing. He turns away and/or gets mad/upset.
Did I send you the transitioning to breast slowly document? If not give me your email and I will send that protocol to you. Try offering the breast when he is getting sleepy and cuddling instead of when he is hungry. Skin to skin contact is really good so have him in just a diaper and you without a shirt and snuggle, some babies will latch on the breast then. If he has a pacifier I would try to minimize usage of that and offer the breast as comfort instead.
