Success after IF
Any one take Reglan
I got a prescription for this today due to low milk supply, I tried everything I could think of, drank tons of water, ate protein, fennugreek, mother's milk tea and things were not getting better. So I was wondering what your s/e were and if it helped, how long it took, and any other comments/advice!

Re: Any one take Reglan
I took it along with fenugreek and the tea. It did alot more than the fen and tea (and didn't have side effects).
I'd say it increased my supply about 1-2 oz per pump. At the time i was pumping 3 times at work. I noticed the increase almost immediately-within a day. My supply dropped because i had an infection or something (i can't remember...mastitis maybe). I took 3, 3x a day for a number of days, 2, 3 x a day for some days, then 1, 3 x a day. I think i took it for somewhere in between 10-14 days. Sorry-can't remember specifics. Mine did stay up after i stopped it.
GL! After the pain of bfing in the beginning, my supply tanking was the worst

Please look into domperidone, it really has less side effects and doesn't cross the blood/brain barrier. If you can find a LC that is also an RN, they can give you a legal perscription for it and you can order from a compounding pharmacy in the US, but it's much cheaper to just order from overseas: inhousepharmacy.com
When I first started taking it it worked like a charm and upped my supply. After a while I found that my supply was back down to where it was pre-reglan though. I also ended up with a mild case of PPD which lead me to stop it completely at which point I weaned.
