Ok, I started pumping today, so far I've pumped for 20 minutes 3 times today. I plan on doing one more before bed.

I was on yasmin until yesterday, was on it for 60 days. I've added goats rue, funegreek, blessed thistle to my 90 mg of dom a day.

I got not even a drop out of the left breast last pumping... I'm just happy to see liquid coming out. So how long does the average woman take to be producing milk, and not drops after being on the accelerated protocol?? Our baby is due on the 12th of December, but I have a feeling the birth mom will be inducing her own labor sometime after Thanksgiving, that's 2 weeks away. I guess I need to invest in a lact-aid. I already have an SNS, and I realize the lact-aid is more desireable???

Any wisdom for me ladies???

Thanks SO much!!

Blessings,
Jamie

hang in there Jamie. I think most women start to see sprays by 2 weeks. But there is no hard and fast rule. The more you pump the better. So try for every 3 hours during the day and once at night.

Ok, thanks. Still only a drop from the left and nothing from the right side. Will continue to pump every 3 hours.

Thanks,
