From an ANR group: Inducing is all about making the brain think there’s a baby to feed. It requires 15-20 minutes every 3-4 hours of pumping, suckling, massage, or a TENS unit. It took me 4 months of pumping to have milk. I got impatient and ordered dom, then it only took me 2 weeks.…

I did some clean research and discovered that larger, darker areolas are an aid to breastfeeding. I think the more prominent a woman’s areolas, the more likely she is to be an overabundant wellspring of milk. Milk overproduction seems to correlate with areola size and pigmentation.

Diabetes, low blood sugar and low carb diets can’t stop milk production, nor do they seriously affect milk composition. Women’s bodies still somehow bear fruit. The Wikipedia article on breast milk says: “Actual inability to produce enough milk is rare, with studies showing that [women] from developing countries experiencing nutritional hardship still produce amounts of milk…

As someone who suffers from numerous breast feeding issues, I didn’t think Domperidone would work for me. We finally figured out what was going on with my body, and why despite my best efforts I could not increase my milk supply. My problem is three-fold: I suffer from mammary hypoplasia…
The key is nipple and areola stimulation, done consistently. Multiple manual stimulation sessions daily, with help from your loving husband, over the course of some few weeks should result in at least a few drops. It varies from woman to woman.
