Home Forums Induced Lactation aka Adoptive Breastfeeding Medical Interventions to Induce Lactation/Increase Milk Supply Night shift/day shift...

Hi everyone,
I am a newbie here, getting ready to start the accelerated protocol, getting ready to bring home our baby from Guatemala in a couple of weeks.
My question is- I will be on leave from work for a month, but after that I will be working night shift (RN) 12 hour shifts 3 nights a week. How should I time my meds/herbs with such a changing schedule? Any ideas?

Well, I have my dom and Ortho 1/35 and I am planning to start accelerated protocol tomorrow. I will be working nightshift for 3 or 4 nights a week for the next 2 weeks and I am unable to find any info on whether I should continue taking the dom during the day, or take it at night while I am working? I could have my husband wake me for the noontime dose. Not sure what to do? Anyone have any idea? Also, when I go back to work in October it would be the same question but include the herbs--- do I take the dom and herbs at night at work or keep my daytime schedule? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Lou most women take the Dom with their normal meals. You could do the same thing. No need to wake up to take it as that is technically your night time.
