BUMMER!! Another day goes by without the dom showing up (my own fault for not ordering sooner). If it comes tomorrow I will be able to do the protocol for EXACTLY 30 days, IF she makes it to her due date.
I will take everyone's advice and order a few more LA's, and hope that she delivers late. How funny is that? Aren't we usually just on pins and needles waiting....?
Thanks, all.

Let me know if you want me to send you some of my supply to get you started ... you can just replace it when you get your order. I need to order too ... yikes.

Thanks, Christina! That is REALLY generous of you. I'm thinking about driving up to Canada today to get some. If anyone has information about getting it from Canada, please let me know.
I also sent an email to Global to see if they could send me a tracking number.
Obviously I didn't get it yesterday either! But I did go on a REALLY great hike!

It used to be you had to have a perscription to get it in Canada. I don't know if that has changed. A US doctor can write you one. There are also some compounding pharmacies in the US that sell dom. again you have to have a script. I know there is one in Portland maybe there is one close to you.

Where are you in Washington? We're only 20 minutes from Sumas, which is near Bellingham, if you wanted to come to my house and borrow a box of motilium. Or, you could see a Dr. (would probably cost $40 Canadian) and get a BC prescription and fill it here (about $70 Canadian for 400 pills). I don't think a US prescription will work for a regular (non online) pharmacy. So it would probably cost more to do it that way.

FINALLY! Just checked the mail and the dom showed up!
So today officially begins my journey toward inducing lactation. Although it unofficially began weeks ago when I first read that it was possible. I think that I first read about it on the adoption.com forums which led me to the ABRW site. After doing some dogpile and google searches I found the protocols. Unfortunately for me, I completely missed the fact that there were forums on this site. After posting a question on ABRW some nice poster clued me in to you all!!
Sorry for the rambling, but I'm pretty excited about the dom and who else could POSSIBLY understand?!!
BTW Thanks for the offer Kerri. I would probably have driven over tomorrow had it not arrived today. I live in Wenatchee.
