Happy Holidays to all who celebrate this time of year!

Mom is adopting baby from Guatemala in March (at 3 months of age).  Babe
is being breastfed now and mom plans to induce lactation.

Mom went to reproductive endocrinologist complaining of irregular
bleeding.  Doc wants to give her 14 day course of oral Provera (20 mg)
to get her body "back in synch". Mom is fearful it will interfere with
her lactation.

Any thoughts, O wise mids in Lact Land?

Kym, finally typing without those four extra helping hands and actually
doing worse!
