but no! I think the protocol is working and my breasts are getting bigger! The last few days i've been noticing my bra is uncomfortable and doesn't fit that well and i really put it down to gaining weight - then i just had a realization that no - it's because the protocol is beginning to work! yay...

Mommy - I too have noticed "pregnancy like" symptoms - i almost stopped the bc pill just in case i was pg - then I realized that the chances of that are less than 0!!!! Must be the protocol....

This is all pretty neat, eh?

Yeah... I did take a pg test, just to make me stop wondering... of course it was -ve, I had my tubes done last year, but I could really use the pg symptoms to lighten up a little!!! LOL... I only did 21 days of the bcp because I just couldn't take it, and now I'm pumping, I'm not exactly sure how long... 3 or 4 weeks, and getting a good 20oz a day, so that is good. It looks like we may be getting twins, so my confidence has now went downhill... but hopefully it works out and I get more milk. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Congratulations on the progress!!!! Keep us updated!

20 oz a day is alot! It sounds like you are doing a great job. How many times a day are you pumping?

I'm pumping 6 times, all during waking hours. I think I might be having an easier time because I have nursed 2 biological children, my youngest is only 19 months, weaned about a year ago.
