I am getting so frustrated with pumping. My supply has decreased from about 4 oz combined every time I pumped to now at max getting 25ml combined. Extra sessions, power pumping, and herbal supplements have done nothing. My amounts just keep getting lower. My daughter was 12 weeks early and won't get to to try breastfeeding for probably at least another week. My last option is Reglan....anyone want to share their experiences with it?

@31knightsfbmommy, I have been told side effects are kinda insane....I mean lactating is one of the side effects but heard it can cause some really bad depression....which is why Dr's only prescribe it a few weeks at a time. But didn't know how true or how well it works. If I hear anything I'll let you know.

well I just started my period yesterday.....but my supply dropped almost 2 weeks ago. And my Dr won't prescribe BC until my 6 week pp appointment and I'll be 4 weeks pp tomorrow.

Having a NICU baby it's hard to keep up your supply. Atleast it was for me. Have you done any natural things to help boost? Do you pump every 3 hours? Drink lots of water?
