    I tried it for 2 days and I noticed an increase right away, but the side effects were so bad for me that I had to stop (muscle spasms so bad I couldn't even sit or walk straight).  If I were you, I'd order domperidone instead(https://www.inhousepharmacy.biz/).  I know a lot of ppl have been able to use reglan w/out side effects, but they were so bad for me I wished I'd never taken it, and didn't subside until 9 hours after my last dose, it was excruciating!  I'm just incredibly relieved LO didn't react to it.  If you do take it, just watch out for side effects right away so that you can stop it early and they won't get as bad.

    i use Domperidone, i went from NO supply (not nursing or able to breastfeed my daughter since she was 6 weeks) and since i started relactating i can now feed her with no supplement if i wanted to. i have been doing it 1.5 months now and things progressed pretty fast but there are other ladies who are that are slow responders to the domperidone but they are coming along.

    i was on reglan for 3 days and had to stop b/c it made me so very tired and fatigued.  some people don't experience any side effects though.  i hope it works for you!

    I was given Reglan to take in my 1st tri for nausea. It made me fall asleep within 10mins of taking it. I would sleep for about 10hrs after taking it.
