Medical issues need natural induction - 10/20/11 05:01 PM
I have been pg 6 times have 2 boys and breastfed twice on my own. After the last child we had I could not have anymore due to medical issues. We have a surrogate who is pregnant and I want to breastfeed. I talked to a lactation consultant and she said all I had to do was pump and milk should come in. I can not take any of the OTC meds like milk thistle or the domperidone or birth control pills etc for bringing in milk supply do to all my allergies to medications. Does anyone have any idea if I can induce by just pumping alone? If so how does this work just pump? The breastfeeding consultant I talked to said pump every 2 hours for 15 min each time and at least once in middle the night. And when should I start? Our baby is due June 2012. And our surrogate is willing to pump for me.
