breastfeeding while taking the Yasmine birth control pill?

My baby is 7 months old. I am breastfeeding. I was originally prescribed micronar as birthcontrol...but never took it as I was told it wasn't that effective. Recently, I decided to start birth control and was prescribed Yasmine. I am concerned because I read that this type of birth control pill may not be compatible with breastfeeding. I was told it "tricks" the body into thinking it is pregnant.....will that make my breastmilk return to colostrum (as it would if I really were pregnant?). I want to continue nursing and will gladly pick another form of birthcontrol if that is better. Thank you.
