Random thoughts? Weekly progress? Who knows. I still haven’t entirely decided how much I want to share since its quite a personal thing but also want to share experiences with others trying to induce and talk to people that get it

    So after having some confusion and trouble getting my doctor to understand and be supportive… I’ve decided on a plan I think. As of right now I’m 2 weeks into my induction journey and what I’ve been doing is pumping, taking Fenugreek supplements, eating oatmeal everyday, and drinking alot more water. So far I’ve noticed slight breast swelling, a feeling of heaviness/fullness, some stabbies, more prominent montgomery glands and veins.

    What I’m planning to do now is a modified Newman-Goldfarb Protocol without domperidone. Its possible I might be able to get domperidone in the future but I don’t have it yet and don’t have any guarantee I’ll be able to so I’m trying to do the protocol without it. Basically for 3 months I’ll take combination birth control I’ve been prescribed (estrogen/progesterone), no pumping but some massaging to (hopefully) help the tissue develop. And then after 3 months switch to a progesterone only birth control and start pumping again. I’ll try to track progress but I’m thinking these 3 months might be uneventful and boring
