Hi everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself and let you know where I am with the protocol. I was on the regular protocol for 19 weeks (Necon 1/35 for most of that time, Diane 35 for the final 26 days). That was not by design, but we thought we had a baby coming this summer and so I hurried things along with the Diane and started pumping a few weeks earlier than planned. Didn't work out with baby, but pumping was already going well so I'm staying with it.
I got drops right away and have had a steady increase ever since. I'm taking Domperidone, fenugreek, blessed thistle, and eating my oatmeal. I started out pumping 10 or more times a day for a few days then 8 times a day for about 6 weeks. Now I'm pumping 6 times a day, but that includes once at night since I get too full if I try to sleep through the night. I've been pumping for a total of almost 8 weeks and I am getting up to 15 ounces a day! I'm fortunate to have a friend who is letting me have some freezer space! Anyway, nothing definite on a baby yet, but I will be glad to be attached to a baby instead of a pump, hopefully sooner rather than later.
Thanks for listening,
Cindy
