Hi ladies-- how long should I try the More Milk plus before moving on to Dom? I took 6 days of Fenugreek (4500 mg per day)....and had a little increase. IBCLC suggested MMP- so I am on day 3 of that.
About me- my son is 2w and 3d old....I got a horrible case of mastitis when he was 10 days old and my milk was really starting to come in....and I dried up over night (even with frequent nursing, etc. etc.)
So, my guy lost weight and now we have to supplement BM or formula from 1-2oz after each nursing. I also pump for 15 minutes after each nurisng....
And I am get impatient and desperate for a supply increase because I really want to only BF him.....I hate using forumla!
Plus- with all the steps for each feeding it is taking me 2 hours per feed.....really tough times.
Should I just go for it and order the Dom????- I have an appt. with my IBCLC on Tues- and she said we could talk about it then, if I am not seeing the results that I want. I am afraid it takes so long to get it....as I think I will have to order from NZ--
I refuse to take Reglan, because I am depressed enough with the current state of the nusing relationship that I do not want to add something that could cause me depressive symptoms.
Any thoughts?
