Haven't posted for awhile, but I thought I would share a different case with
you all today--

*53 year old post menopausal* ( is that what women are called when they know
they have been through menopause?)  woman, previous pregnancy/lactation
many moons ago adopted a newborn 4 weeks ago.  Had been on many a wait list
for a baby, so was already ready with a Lact-Aid and Domperidone.  Baby is
an avid nurser, even for comfort sucking.

Today, 4 weeks into the nursing and domperidone, after waking and feeling
that her breasts were a bit heavier and fuller feeling, was able to express
3 drops of milk!  While it does not sound like much - yet!-  she is thrilled
to see activity!

Will keep you all posted as to what we see over time in terms of supply.
