hello. i am ready to order the meds for inducing lactation. here's my question... what birth control should i take? we are going through an agency (close to being in the book), but we could be matched anytime...2 mos, 2 yrs...what do you think? anyone? thank you

Hello!
I would order the Diane... it has an exra mg of progesterone in it. And its a different kind than the regular ones. IT seems to develop the breasts better than with ordinary Bcps <img src="http://www.asklenore.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif" alt="" />

The Diane 35 is the bcp that most of us used. If you want to read the guide to the Newman-Goldfarb Protocols for Maximizing Milk Supply you'll find it here: http://www.asklenore.info/breastfeeding/induced_lactation/gn_protocols.html

Most of the places that carry the domperidone also carry Diane 35. And there is a bcp in the US now called Yasmin that has 3 mg of progesterone. Lenore advised me to take a baby aspirin per day while on the protocols because these are considered higher dose bcp.
