I was on the regular protocol for 5 months, pumped for 2 weeks getting about 3.5-4ozs at every pumping session until this weekend when I got the stomach flu. I didn't take my domp or pump for 24 hours. Since then (1.5days) I have started taking my domp, blessed thistle, fenugreek and eating oatmeal and pumping every 2- 3 hours for 15 - 20 mins but I am only getting about 1 - 2 ozs... sometimes less. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Should my milk amount continue to grow as it did the first time if I continue this regiman or should I do something different?
Thanks
Kristi

Hi Kristi,

I'm so sorry to hear you were not well. Just get back on the horse sweetie and your milk supply should rebound in a couple of days. You are likely just a little dehydrated. Also, just so you know, domperidone was originally designed as an anti-nausea medication so if that happens again, speak to your doctor about taking it to help your tummy.

Best,
