The child I will be adopting is due August 30, 2004. I have rented a Medela Lactina breast pump and want to attempt to induce lactation. I don't want to take domperidone. I know I can get herbs to take and will be doing that. My question is how do I know how often to pump, how long to pump, what setting to use on the pump, etc? Also, anybody had luck producing milk without domperidone?

If you choose to use a breast milk pump like [URL="http://www.trusted-breast-pumps.com/shop-by-brand/evenflo-breast-pumps.html"]Evenflo[/URL] breast pump make sure you dont pump too often or else youҒll over produce milk. This could lead to some complications. Only pump in substitution to a feeding, not in addition to. Take some time to research and educate yourself on the advantages to breastfeeding your baby.
[URL="http://www.trusted-breast-pumps.com/evenflo-breast-pumps/evenflo-elan-breast-pump.html"]Evenflo[/URL] also has a brand new, more powerful model in the Comfort Select Performance Dual Auto-Cycling Breast Pump. Its dual motors allow for faster pumping in a shorter time, with a quicker flow of milk. Also included are 2 additional overflow valves for additional convenience. The automatic cycling simulates the suckling patterns of a baby effortlessly, and the same adjustable vacuum control dial maximizes efficiency and gives mom just as much control as she has with the manual pump.
I was able to build a full supply with pumping, herbs, and Domperidone. I was not able to until I added the Domperidone though. I think I actually have less side effects from the Dom than the herbs. I did not have to take BCP though. I am not working on building enough to nurse my son and the new baby.
I tried the route you are taking. It did not work for me. My daughter wouldn't nurse until I was making milk, even if I used the Lactaid. Herbs did nothing. Pumping with herbs did almost nothing. Pumping with domperidone worked great and I got enough milk to get my daughter to nurse. I quit pumping and just nursed plus domperidone and I got a full supply and kept it after I quit the domperidone. Off domperidone for over a year now and no problems with supply. I had no side effects with the domperidone except possibly weight gain, but then all I did was sit on my butt and stare at my gorgeous baby.
Good luck.

The most efficient and effective breast pumps for initial usage as well as for maintaining the milk supply are the hospital grade pumps. A breast pump stimulates lactation in women and can be used to continue lactation to recover from pregnancy even when the pumped milk is not used. There are many brands like [URL="http://www.trusted-breast-pumps.com/shop-by-brand/evenflo-breast-pumps.html"]Ameda breast pump[/URL] and Medela Breast pumps which are safe and easy to use for the working mothers.

I know the thread is old but I didn't think it was necessary to create a new thread about it. Just wanted to add my 2 cents worth, since it may give you a bit of hope. Power pumping helps me a lot with my milk supply. So glad I found "STARTBF247" ❤️ in Google and got Dom.
