I've been speaking with a mom who had a reduction. She is having great
success with her milk supply while taking Domperidone, (which she
ordered from Mexico). She had a curious question which I was unable to
answer. Since we know that prolactin levels decrease after so many weeks
post-partum, what is it that keeps the milk supply up?

Also, we advise women that per alchoholic drink, to wait 2 hours before
nursing. Also, that they don't have to "pump and dump" since the
alchohol dissipates. If mom was to pump and wait a sprcified amount of
time before using that milk, would it be safe to use for the baby?

Many Thanks, Dawn Staudt-Vanek, RN, BSN, IBCLC
