Lilly went to the doctor yesterday and discussed relactation with him.
She has been telling him that she is planning to help out a neice that is pregnant and has never been able to nurse.
(Good cover story, anyway.)
Doctor gave my wife a clean bill of health, and told her she's doing all the right stuff to relactate.
The pump, the supplements and herbs, and he even encouraged her to try to get me to "help" move things along.
(If he only knew!)
He sees no problem since she has acted as a wet-nurse on and off over the past 40 years.
The only downside factor he mentioned was her age.
(THAT went ove well, NOT!)
He said she may need a little "boost" to get it all started since it's been awhile since she has produced any large quantity of milk.
He offered her an injection of Domperidone (Motilium ®), which she was reluctant to take without investigating it first.
He says that usually it will accelerate the production of milk, with little side effects.
He did say that it could boost lactation to starting with-in 36 to 72 hours, considering how far along she is with the process.
No guarantees though, he has used it with promissing results in the past, but has had a couple of failures with it taking several weeks, even with the injections.
She declined his offer, and told him she would think about it.
They decided to give our current regimen another week, but if nothing happens she can stop into his office on next Wednesday, and get the Motilium.
WHAT does anyone know about this?
I don't want her putting her health at risk just so I can regress back tobeing her "toddler" again.
I know she wants this, and I think she wants this even more than I do.
Help!
Anyone with any experience with Domperidone (Motilium ®), please reply.
