Breastfeeding and Dompheridone

HI, so i am wondering since you cant get domperidone in the US, is it safe to take while nursing?? I kinda thought anything that you take is transfered through your milk, and isnt that bad for the baby?? I was going to try and nurse, but we have been waiting for 6 months and no action about any possible matches so far. So i am kinda changing my mind about trying to nurse but i already sold my breastpump on Craigslist and i really dont want to buy a new one. How many times a day would i have to pump?? where i work, i really cant pump during the day. So like from 8:30 am till 5 pm i wouldnt beable to pump. So i would beable to pump like in the morning once and at night like twice. Would that even be enough stimulation to get any supply?? I have birth control left over from my IVF cycle i could use and i know a website where you can get almost anything if you want. Could i just take b.c. and then start pumping?? i asked my Gynecologist about it last time i was there and she kinda didnt want to help me what so ever, she siad, why would you want to do that?? you wont even get a supply. and that was the end of that! I dont want to take drugs and herbs without the advice of a doctor. i dont want to possibly hurt my newborn baby if i am putting something bad in its system. i breastfed my son for the first 2 months, but i didnt nurse him for like a day and half when i was gone and i dried right up! Nothing left. i didnt have an overabundance of milk to begin with so i dont know if that is a sign that i wouldnt do good with nurse another baby. If anyone has any advice i would appreciate it. Thanks, Rach
