Hi Jennifer, Domperidone is somtimes used in conjunction with a contraceptive pill in an attempt to mimic pregnancy hormones by women relacting/inducing lactation and weight gain is a fairly common side effect of this combination. I don't know about weight gain with Domperidone only though I have vague ideas that prolactin levels might impact appetite. However, something that is often forgotten is how life changes after the addition of a baby to a family (bio or adopted!) and this can mean a more sedentary lifestyle, more eating etc. I'd be looking at that first!
