Ordered domperidone today

Snorkel30

Well, I finally ordered it online. I hope it works miracles like it seems to have for many women struggling with getting enough of a supply. 

I have been slacking with pumping big time lately, I just have felt so discouraged, and I hope that hasn't messed things up totally for me. I hope when the domperidone comes and i start taking it, it'll still work for me, even if i'm not pumping 8-10 times a day. more like half that ive been pumping.

I hope it works, and I can get back into the breastfeeding and trying it again. I have been EP not BF, but would like to keep trying once my supply increases.

Any of you ladies on it, and if so, how many times a day do you pump and how much do you get?

Oh sweetie, you've really been through the ringer with this journey. No experience, but I wanted to send ((HUGS)) your way and T&P that the dom helps. Please remember you're an awesome mom no matter how you feed your baby!

The dom worked great for me. In the beginning to all the things you would normally do to increase supply (pump more often, longer, power pump, etc) until your supply gets where you want it and then you should be able to maintain it.

I stopped EPing at 7 months because of the stress of it all, but with dom I could pump 4 times a day and get 32oz.

yeah, guess you've read my other posts about it. it'll be fine, i'll get there, and if not, I will just have to accept it. It's definitely been a roller coaster ride. thanks for being nice and posting I really do try to be a great mom, and that's why I'm struggling with this. I don't like to give up on anything to do with him, so hopefully the dom will help!

I have been increasing the amount of pumping, so hopefully that'll help to. thanks for writing. i hope it works for me too! so many people seem to have a lot of success with it.
