Happy Sunday, milkmakers and flowchasers!

It’s time for your weekly pillbox prep check-in! Whether you're popping dom, herbs, pre-natals, or just something you enjoy taking, this post aims to support you in keeping your body in flow-friendly balance. Starting today, this thread will now serve as your reminder to refill your stash, share your wins, and recommit to your routine.

Drop a comment to let us know you’re stocked and ready; or let us know if you need a little nudge. We’re in this together!!

When replying, feel free to tell us all about any of the following topics (reply to any or all; lurkers are loved too <3 You matter whether you comment or not):

- did you fill your pill box for the week?

- wanna tell us about what you're taking? spill the deets! Are you taking tablets, capsules, tinctures, or something else? Tell us all about it if you want!

- how has your consistency with pill taking been this week?

- are you making any tweaks in your supplement or med routine?

- did you notice any changes in supply, mood, or energy?

- what's one thing you're proud of this week, no matter how big or small?

Even if you don't get it done, please remember: your routine is valid, even if it's imperfect. This journey is a marathon, not a sprint, and even if you don't get around to it this week, there's always mid-week or next week. Either way, let's support each other towards reaching our goals!

Some housekeeping notes:

- DO NOT TAKE MEDICAL ADVICE FROM STRANGERS ON THE INTERNET. ALWAYS CONSULT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL FOR YOUR HEALTH AND SAFETY.

- Do not talk about any supplements as if they have absolutely positively guaranteed benefits. Just talk about what you think works for you and share your experiences with others. There is no herbal supplement with any hard evidence that they work to do anything for lactation or especially for those of us who are inducing. Any misinformation in the comments will be removed and you will receive a warning.

- You're welcome to post links to share the products you're taking; if you don't see your comment show up right away, it might have been grabbed by the automoderator. Please be patient and I will approve it as soon as I see it in the net.

- Do not peddle pills in this post. I don't mind passionately sharing with the class, but if you're doing so to profit and not because of your love of the product and your community, your comment will be removed and you will likely receive at least a warning.

Welcome to the No Stupid Questions Monthly Megathread! All posts asking basic, low effort, vague, or not very detailed questions will be removed and users will be asked to instead post their questions to this thread. This only applies to basic specific questions that are asked; we will still remove posts that ask vaguely for general advice(omg gimme tips and tricks! etc). Everyone is encouraged to take the time to read the sub resources and search past posts before posting. This Megathread will help to gently redirect folks to bring the questions we see asked time and time again into one place, instead of drowning the main feed of the subreddit. For all of our new folks and lurkers, please take advantage of this space to ask your questions about ABF and about inducing lactation!

Hello everyone!

As some of you may know, I have been lactating for several years (since 2020 or 2022ish I think?) and in December I took a step back to do the Newman Goldfarb hormone protocols. I stopped all stimulation, took BC and dom together religiously for the last few months, and now my boobs are primed and ready to get back to it again, hopefully. I intended to do the protocols until June, but I decided to listen to my body and do what was best for me. I was getting some constant headaches and I constantly felt like I was about to be on my period all of the time. I could handle the random crying over nothing and even feeling hungry more than usual, but waking up to those damned headaches really sucked and I decided to call it quits a couple of days ago.

But! Four months with only a couple of days ever where I actually didn't take the pill was pretty damn good, and I feel very proud that I made it that long! The impact of the birth control was significant. I really did not enjoy being back on it at all. So in addition to being back to pumping full time as of yesterday and re-opening the floodgates, I am going to use the rest of the year to focus on my health and to hopefully regain better fitness. I plan to do the protocols again next year, but I want it to go a bit better and I think if I'm healthier it might (unless my body simply hates birth control regardless and honestly I don't blame it).

If anyone has any questions about my experiences on the protocols, please feel free to ask! I am in my late 30s, I was making about 2 ounces a day when I stopped stimulating and began the protocols. I have done general lab work (last weekend actually) and all of my results are healthy. I took microgestin BC and 20 mg of dom 4 x daily every single day. I also have ADHD and low thyroid disease; I had to adjust timing of taking my meds for those to ensure nothing messed with each other but it was doable. It was really cool because I felt so many of the usual typical sensations most people feel when you first start stimulating, but while doing nothing but taking the meds.

I'm so happy to be back to pumping. I like the routine of it and I am so excited to see if I can push my production further than ever before. My highest total of ounces (high score lol) was 10 ounces in one day. I'll share progress as we go!

Happy Sunday, milkmakers and flowchasers!
