I have been having lactation problems for about a month now. I have been producing less. I have been trying Mother's Milk, but I just get annoyed drinking hot tea every night. Like I feel that should be something I have on the go. So tomorrow I am going to look for Fenugreek. My aunt recommended it. She said she used it and she produced ALOT. So I am definitely crossing my fingers on this!
@emiliasmommy15 my son has one that is slowly fading so I just start using it on there and his cradle cap lol. Ima use it on everything!!!
@muvamermaid, its also great on diaper rashes lol i use it on my daughter
@emiliasmommy15, I am going to get the fenugreek today! And I have been using the coconut oil as well. It was just sitting there and I have a whole jar lol
@muvamermaid, yes morning,noon,night snd coconut oil is safe to eat or use it while cooking
@des_a_rayy, I literally breastfed 24:7 when he first came home for the first month, but things came up and I couldnt breastfeed as much, then he started like fussing on my boob and it got frustrating. I mean he has more patience now but because I am not lactating as much it is hard.
Youll love it! I also pumped after I nursed him when I was starting out, it helped alot!
Don't give up!! Remember to stay hydrated. There's a billion things that may or may not help you, just experiment with it. Make sure you try to breastfeed every few hours even if that means waking baby up, and lots of skin to skin time. Good luck momma!
@mommyofmisters, I saw blessed thistle on Amazon but didn't know of anyone first hand who used it! But there are definitely several options out here, thank you so much!
@emiliasmommy15, I am going to try the cookies! I saw they sell them pre made but I would also consider baking them myself, and what exactly would I do with the coconut oil? I have some in the fridge lol. When I take the pills its like morning, noon, and night?? Thank you so much!
You can also used blessed thistle as well as Brewers yeast ( main ingredient in lactation cookies) you can get it in pill form or flakes for cooking :)
It helps alot! Usually takes 1-3days for milk supply to go up! You are supposed to take 2-3pills 3times a day! Also therr are lactation cookie recepies online u can try to make i hear they help too!😀 good luck mama
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
so today has been super stressful I am glad I have almost made it to 35 wks after all doctor said I won't so that is good but dealing with a 11yr old who wants to be a grown up has been very hard today I am so moody and every thing she says bugs me and she knows it so she is extra mouthy I just want to scream I sware if I talked to my grandparents the way she speaks to me I would have no toung and with all of what's going on these contractions are no fun they are getting harder to handle hopeful...
I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!
on the 6th October I did 2 test with 2 lines , 3rd test was clear blue digital and was positive 2-3 weeks I was waiting for a month for a midwife appointment.. so yesterday I started bleeding went today for a scan and they go to me no sac .. but can see a cyst or a sac outside the womb so therefore she did another test there and it was negative .. she said if it was positive it would have been ectopic pregnancy but because it was negative she said it's miscarriage.
Has anyone else been through...
