mommies who take fenugreek...how long till you saw an increase in your supply?
also TWIN MOMS: any advice on upping breast milk production for two babies?
FTM💙
the instructions say 1 pill 3 times a day. so i take one with breakfast lunch and dinner. @mommyofacountryboy
thanks ladies! :) ill be trying the teas! @dang_dridri the constant pumping is so frustrating! But i havent stopped so im hoping we will get some better results soon.
You also try other teas & things like lactation cookies & snacks. But that & pumping/nursing will help. 😊
@emiswymn, im currently nursing every 3 hours including at night and pumping in between every session and still barely making enough. were currently supplimenting also because the boys arent getting enough calories from me alone :/
Fenugreek can greatly help some, and not so much others. Your best bet to increase supply would be to nurse/pump more, preferably nursing over pumping. Baby's are more efficient at getting the milk out than pumps.
thank you @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom and thanks for the heads up @nicemmcha2015 i was advised to try it by my doula and lactation consultant so hopefully it works out for us ok
be careful with fenugreek. it can have bad side effects for you and baby. not trying to tell you what to do. just a friendly bit of info.
Ok your must be a different brand my told me 4-5x a day
