I had to stop breastfeeding my 10 week old at 8 weeks of age because she was dairy intolerant - now that I have dairy out of my system, I was wondering if you could share any tips on how to pump to get my milk back. I put my daughter on to the breast at every feed before supplementing with formula. I have hired a hospital grade pump and have an battery pump and a manual pump I use between feeds. I used to be able to express 100mls in minutes and now I can only get about 100mls all day. It's been four days since starting and I'm taking Domperidome (Motillium) to increase prolactin (can't take fenugreek tea as the allergy clinic believe it has too many chemicals - part of an elmination diet - you'd think the meds would be the issue???).I fed my first for 18 months and I had an oversupply before this dairy issue decided to play havoc in our lives so I know my body can make it.
