Hi All,

 

Quick question - does anyone have any experience with a mom with breast
hypoplasia taking domperidone and having it help the milk production at all?
I am working with a young mom who is really struggling with the fact that
her breasts simply will not produce a full supply of milk for her baby.  

 

Baby breastfeeds very well, mom is taking More Milk Special Blend and is
supplementing at breast with an SNS.  She is currently doing pre/post
weights for 48-72 hours to determine where her actual supply is due to baby
gaining slowly (about 4oz per week is all - baby is currently 11wks old and
is doing fine otherwise) so that she knows how much more ABM to supplement
with.   However, mom is very interested in trying Domperidone to see if it
will also help to augment her supply even more so she can use less ABM (she
hates the stuff!).

 

Thoughts or studies appreciated - email privately or to the list

Thanks!

Jaye
