Hi
I've started my 3rd month of the menopausal protocol (Yasmin and Domperidone). My breast size increased back up to a full C-cup from a B-and-a-half. I'm getting a lot of gas but the headaches have gone and the nausea has gone.
3 1/2 more months before I stop the Yasmin, start the herbs and start the pumping. I will start July 31st for a September 11th due date.
Where is everyone else in their process?
Take care,
LD

Hey,
On day 44 of accelerated protocol. Will start pumping at the beginning of May as our baby is due in early June. Chris, it's great you have so much more time on the protocol - you should have a fantastic result.
Stomach / digestion related side effects subsided quickly, tiredness was and to some extent is a problem, vitamins as recommended by Laurie (50 mg B6 + 500 mcg B12) have helped though. Spotting has increased somewhat.
Breast development has been uneven but noticeable. Less than a cup size, but nipples have grown a lot, breasts mostly feel hard / full and intermittently sore.
Ladies, do tell us how you are doing!

Hi, I'm new to this site, except when I first perused it to start the protocol in Jan. I had trouble with my password, so am starting anew today -- and am pumping for the first time today as I write!! (slowly typing one-handed...) I'm ecstatic to see those golden liquid drops fall into the collection bottles and at the same time reminding myself not to be discouraged at the miniscule accumulation -- we've only just begun!
I also appreciated reading some of the other postings re the fatigue and weight gain -- I was hoping to blame the latter on the Yasmin since I stopped that today....and am continuing the domperidone 20 qid, and start the blessed thistle and fenugreek today as well.
So here's a toast to Baby Hannah, domestic adoption due 5/31/04, and Liam, bio son now 4 1/2, and all the rest of the bf'ing babes!
Thanks for all the info!
Karen
