Home Forums Induced Lactation aka Adoptive Breastfeeding Medical Interventions to Induce Lactation/Increase Milk Supply Droplets of Milk

Barrbie you can hand express after pumping. Which pump are you using? Have you done the massaging recommended. Some women have great success pumping then stopping doing massage and then pumping some more. I will go find the instructions for you.

Here is the link for pumping instructions.

hi Barrbie,

Ok I need to be clear on what you have done so far. You took which birth control pill? And you took it together with domperidone for 37 days? And you stoped the birth control pill and maintained the domperidone? And you started pumping right away? And you are pumping how many times per day and for how long each time? And you're using which pump? And you're not eating foods that contain sage, or parsley or raspberry leaf or fennel?

Waiting for reply....

best, Lenore

How come no fennel? I see fennel used in those Mother's Milk Teas.....

I have taken yasmin for 37days with dom. Then started pumping (28th of Jan.) every 2-3 hours with pump in style advanced and also kicked in Fenugreek 620mg and Blessed Thistle 390mg taking both 3-3 times per day. So 9 each per day. For the first few days only droplets. Now two weeks later I am getting about a tablespoon each breast at each pumping time. I try to get up in the middle of the night, sometimes I don't and some times I do. The birthmom is already 2 cm dialated. I can tell there is more milk in the breast when the pumping time is done. I am following the "7 jiggle/massage 7" schedule. I am also drinking the mother's milk tea and eating oatmeal. Is there anything else I can do???? I don't think I am eating the sage, parsley, raspberry leaf or fennel but I will watch it closer.

And just to be clear you stopped the Yasmin but are still taking the dom? I think you are meaning that you did but you haven't actually said that.
Do you have a lact-aid?
