xp: Reglan

SandiaPinaMama

Has anyone taken this?  I'm starting my first pill tonight.  I'm not working, so I know that this may dominate my life, but I'm prepared to make that commitment.

FYI, I have already/still am: oatmeal, LOTS of water, beer, fenugreek, pumping after every feeding, mother's milk tea 5x/day.

I asked this on the BFing board, too, but I like to get input from my homegirls here.  Any input/thoughts are appreciated.

I have not used this to increase supply of bm, but I have heard successful stories from those on the bf'ing board about this med.  My story isn't related to nursing.  Good luck to you with your supply.  I know what a pain it can be (with ds), especially the pumping after feeding-it can take over your life!

This is the medicine that was giving to me for morning sickness last August.  It helped me become less sick feeling, but I also felt drugged and needed to sleep all the time.  I was one of those rare cases and developed tardive dyskinesia, which is uncontrolled facial and body movements. (My aunt,who takes this for reflux, said I was surprised to see that I was on such a large dosage, which could have had something to do with my side effects-I'm not sure) It was very scary, but luckily my symptoms went away after stopping the meds and taking benadryl.

I took two rounds of it.  It might have helped a little but not a ton.  I hope it works for you!

I took it. It doubled my supply, but that wasn't enough for my doctor to say it was okay to continue taking it because of the potential sever depression risk. I was making 1 oz and it helped me make 2 oz... It did start working within hours of the first dose. I was also taking more milk plus special blend (adds goat rue to the usually concoction to help with the PCOS issue). I hope it works better for you.

I was on this for 3 weeks before other medical concerns forced me to stop breastfeeding. This was amazing for me...incredible increase in supply, no side effects. Did feel sleepy when I first started taking it, but worth it.
