Motivation as in anything is extremely important in breastfeeding and even more important is tenacity when inducing lactation. The success rate for the following protocols according to Nemba in the 1994 Journal of Trop Pedeatrics was 89%. In this study 33 of the 37 women nursed their babies for 9 months or longer. Thse mothers began with a 100 mg single priming dose of medrozyprogesterone (Depo Provera). After 7 days, they began 25 mg of chlorpromazine 4 times daily or 10 mg of metoclopromide 4 times daily until adequate lactation was established. Frequent pumping before infant's arrival and/or frequent suckling afterward is encouraged. A Lact-Aid supplemental nutrition system that tapes to the breast is necessary until adequate lactation is established. Inducing lactation is a gift of time and love!
