Can you use an SNS and a nipple shield at the same time??

I was just wondering!

I am about to relactate for my 15 month old, who was just diagnosed with an immune deficiency. Right now he is getting donor milk..

I am pretty confident in my ability to relactate...

I was also wondering where everyone orders Domperidone from?

yes, in fact a friend whose daughter was born with cleft palate did this for close to a year. wish i knew the details... maybe someone with a baby with cleft can help...??? try the special needs forum.

lots of mamas get their dom from globaldrug.tv

sending your son healing vibes...

Yeah, I did it for a little while. It just takes a little more coordination.

Although, it's my understanding that using a nipple shield can be somewhat controversial sometimes... just from the standpoint of, I guess LC's sometimes use them when they really aren't necessary and can cause some problems?

Just wanted to mention it if you're not already aware.

Oh, and that globaldrug.tv site is where I got my domperidone. They rock. Just make sure you order it right away, it takes around a week to get here, if I recall.

Good luck relactating!!!
