eglonyl

Thanks Nelsn. Ja just wanted a bunch of opinions but I should probably stick with my gut which says, yes it's going to be tough for a bit but I don't want to take drugs if I can avoid it. And I really don't feel comfy taking anti depressants. Especially if it goes through to the milk. MMaybe just increase the skin to skin and carry on drinking lots of water. At least I have the pills for incase. I took one pill now at lunch time though. Hope It's okay to just stop now.

Hi Faffy

each of us are different and so is each baby. But your body knows what to do and produces enough milk even when we think our breast dont have enough milk. Let baby latch and feed on demand even though its seems too often it will get better with time. If you dont feel comfy drinking the drug please dont and try letting your body produce milk itselft according to babies demands. Drink alot of water and I hear rooibos helps too if you really concerned and want to try helping your body through.

Hi ladies, I have a question.
I had a c section and my milk is slowly coming in but is not leaking or full. My little one drinks Ok during the day but at night he is very upset because he doesn't seem to get full. Now I am not sure if I should give my body more time to get my milk coming in better, or should I take eglonyl to help it along? I told my doctor I think my milk gets low in the evening because he doesn't sleep after feeds at night and he gets so upset. She prescribed eglonyl to help it along and I took one now but suddenly I'm not sure I am comfortable with it. I don'think feel depressed and I don't want to force myself body to make milk if it's unnatural and if I will battle to let go of the drug easily? I do have somdone anxiety issues but never took drugs for it and managed just fine. I feel confident and happy now but I do feel sometimes a bit empty..and the thought of my milk not being enough to satisfy baby makes me very worried. I want to give him all I can. But now if I take this drug it will make my breast over flowing and hopefully make my boy sleep longer than 30 mins after feeding. I feed on demand which is sometimes 4 or 5 hours of feeding with like half hour nap if I'm lucky. His weight has gone back to birth weight and a little above. He has lots of poo nappies and wee nappies. So should I just keep workin through the low milk times and hope it comes in sufficiently soon? Or take the eglonyl which will bring in milk and maybe help if I do lean towards depression? her an really not a fan of taking drugs though. But if it's for the good of my baby I'll do it.

Thanks x
