I just spent a few weeks sulking, but now I'm up for round two.
Breastfeeding now has the cards stacked against me, since now I'll be attempting to 're-lactate.' Clearly, M. will never be an exclusively breastfed baby, but I'm hoping I can at least get her some of that magical elixir out of these teets.
I met with a lovely lactation consultant at The Birth Center and here's the plan she worked up for me:
- take domperidone
- take fenugreek
- drink H20 'till I swim
- Pump 6-8x/day (HOLY SHIT)
- Look at pics of M. while pumping to stimulate loving-mama feelings
Well, I'm going to start sometime next week...I'll let you know how it goes....
