I got drops by using a tens unit, pumping and trying all the herbs/supplements!
And I mean drops!!
I ended up not getting enough to satisfy what I wanted so I take Domperidone and am very successful with that drug! Despite what the “naysayers” say!! Noooooo side affects what so ever!! I know a lot of women who use it as well!! Just sayin”
Also I believe your hormones, age and mensuration all factor! Some women are blessed and can make milk with out much effort!!!
I’ve read too that you can not make colostrum with out the baby factor!
But I know what you are talking about as I got those drops as well!!
Milky luck 🦋Hello everyone. I just wanted to mention a couple of things here. It is possible to induce without taking medications or herbal supplements. It may take a little longer but It can happen. Fenugreek has estrogenic like properties and estrogen is one of the hormones that prevents milk flow during pregnancy. Depending on what your estrogen levels are adding fenugreek can tank or prevent milk. It works for some and not for others. A few herbals i recommend are Moringa, Shatavari and Goats Rue. A mouth or hand expressing is best for inducing but some times a pump has to be used to stimulate the ducts, it’s the least effect way, but sometimes the only option. There are no rules that say you can’t use a pump. Another option if your not producing yet but need to stimulate the breasts is a TENS unit. Unless you in the last 24 hrs expelled a placenta you cannot produce colostrum. When your inducing your missing a third hormone that comes from the placenta that helps with the production of colostrum. I didn’t look at the video but if it’s only been 3 days I would guess that what your actually producing is lymphatic fluid that is cleaning out your ducts. It may stop while your breasts prepare for milk production. Don’t be disappointed if it does, your breasts are doing a lot of things you can’t see inside, but this is a great sign!!
You can’t have colostrum unless your pregnant. It would be what comes before the milk comes in.
Hey lovely, I’d say your video is formatted wrong and that’s probably why it won’t load on here. You’ll need to convert it to mp4 to upload it and then compress it.
Looks like the beginnings for you though from what I can tell on the pic 🥰😘😘What is on your nipple photos ? Is that something over it? Three days of pumping? No, that’s not possible. It’s likely puss though. If you’re not used to pumping it will inflame and irritate and break the skin. You need dom to lactate outside of pregnancy
That’s correct. Colostrum is before milk after baby is born. Taking dom or medications to raise prolactin to lactate wouldn’t have colostrum
