I am taking Ortho 1/35 and 20mg of Dom 4x a day. For the last few days I have been bleeding some, which I remember reading does happen, but I am also cramping, too. Is this okay? I have been taking my bcp's like I should, but is it possible something's messing up? Thanks!

I realize that this is not one of the more pleasant side effects of the protocols but in the end when your milk comes in, it will be worth the trouble. Hang in there honey.
