I have used it and it worked really well for me. I took 2 pills 3 times a day. I also drank nursing tea (increases milk and some teas help with colicky babies!) Oatmeal (steel cut) is another good helper

Gook luck

Hi there. I just googled it and have came up with website has all the answers to your questions just scroll down. When i need to know something i just google it. Good Luck

Yes I know exactly what your talking about. I have that myself. It’s called “mothers milk” and it has fenugreek in it. The one i purchased comes in a tea form though so you have to boil and drink. But its pretty much the same. and yes it does increase milk flow. I would take it a few times a day, for example once in the morning, afternoon and night, maybe before the times your about to nurse. as long as your consistent with it, your milk supply should increase. lots of luck

I was told to start with 1-610 mg pill 3 times/day and increase it until your sweat and urine smells like maple syrup. For me that was 3 pills 3 times/day. It worked really well. I took it with Milk Thistle (3 pills 3 times/day). That really bumped up the supply. It did not take long at all to notice a difference. I started in the afternoon one day and by the next day, I was producing tons more milk.
Also, if you are a beer person, try drinking a stout dark beer. The L&D nurse told me to try it. If I have a guiness every couple of days, I have enough milk to feed an army of babies
Oatmeal was the same way. One bowl and I am filled up.

I started taking it to increase production bout two weeks ago. My doctor told me to start with 4 pills three times a day for 4 days, then 3 pills 3 times a day for 4 days, then 2 pills 3 times a day for 4 days etc down to none. Most people see results within 24 hrs up to a week. It’s safe to keep taking it if you find when you stop your milk goes back down. The only common side effect is your sweat and urine can tend to smell like maple syrup lol. Oh and it can give you gas and the poops if so lower your dose.

Yes I used Fenugreek, it will make your pee smell funny but other than that it works wonders. It may take a few days or a week to see an increased supply. You need to take 2 pills and least 2-3 times a day for it to work. Good luck. Oh the store where I bought the herb told me about another herb called Goats Rue or Rhue that will double your milk supply, but I never tried it. They said I should only use the Goats Rue if I really need to, but I didnt need it. Lastly eat lots of protein and you can drink those ensure drinks or the generics for the calories and protein.
