I was having severe emotional issues since going on the yasmin, switched pills, no help, so last week I went off and just started pumping with the dom and herbs. I am getting about a half ounce a day, hopefully it will increase anyway. Our adoption fell through, so I have lots of time, since I don't know when we'll be able to afford those hefty agency fees, I just don't feel like I can quit with the milk though... just in case... Hopefully the milk increases... if not... do you think it would be worthwhile to try the protocol over again? Thanks for the opinions! Kristen Copy Link to Clipboard

I'll pray that you have an easy time of producing enough breastmilk. You and I are in similar situations. My adoption fell through two weeks ago. My first thought was to give up on breastfeeding, but it was Lenore and other members of this board who had kind words and encouragement. I'm back on the protocol now. I guess like you, I'm trying to stay ready just in case. I'll pray that your wait is very short and that your breastmilk is abundant. Blessings to you! Dedicated
