Re: low milk supply!

[Guest guest]

I've been sharing information about this (never

recommending!) with clients for the past five years or so, as well, and

find that it works wonderfully. I recommend polysporin (not

neosporin) for the antibiotic and miconozole for the antifungal. I

even have a handout about it.

prescribe the nipple ointment.

Donna, why bother with prescription nipple ointment? Just have the

mom get OTC antifungal, OTC hydrocortisone 1%, and OTC antibiotic

ointment. Mix a dab of each in her hand and apply. The you

aren't stuck using an expensive ointment that has hydrocortisone in it

for a long period of time. If need be, you can use they HC for two

or three days and then eliminate it.

I've been using this for years -- 15 maybe? I asked my husband the

pharmacist about it and he thught it was a great idea. Talked to

Tom Hale about it maybe 10 years ago or so, and he laughed -- and then

promptly, 3 years ago, touted it at ILCA as " Tom's Cheap Nipple

Ointment. "

So you don't need to get an order for that. It's all OTC.
