Hi!
What pumps is everyone using? I'm just about to the point that I need to look into renting/buying a pump.
Also I started with Ocella birth control and Domperidone within the last month and a half. I noticed that my breasts seem a lot heavier and firmer. Also I only seem to have one bra that fits anymore as they have also become larger. I've put on 8 pounds! Some has to be in the breasts. Has anyone else had this happen. I'm worried about what it's going to be like after I start pumping!

Welcome! I would guess that the weight gain is from the pill. I dont think pumping should contribute to anymore weightgain! So far for me, it hasnt anyways!
I started with the medela symphony which can be rented. I am switching over to the medela pump un style now as it was lent to me for free and the other, hospital grade pump, was not. I have not noticed a decrease in supply so far but have noticed that I have slowed down in increasing. Not sure if that is just my body slowing down in production or the pump!
Do you have a match yet? We have one but not due until march so I will have been pumping for 6 months! All worth it in the end hopefully!

I took the last dose of Ocella today! Picked up a Medela Symphony Pump yesterday and will start pumping tomorrow! I still have to figure out where to get fenugreek and blessed thistle. We are doing an independant adoption. We knew the birthmother before she became pregnant and she had asked us if we would be interested in setting up an adoption plan with her. After 5 years of infertility we said "YES!". So far all is going well, she is due in early February 2010.
