My doctor recommended fenugreek to increase my milk supply said it’s safe to use. I just wanted to know if any of you…

@zachattackmomma, thanks I try to pump at least 8 times a day

@mariacardnz123, it’s a supply and demand so keep pumping frequently 24/7 👍🏻👍🏻

@zachattackmomma, my milk supply is there and I make between 2-4 ounces every 2 hours from each breast I just want to start storing since I will be going back to work soon

@mariacardnz123, I breastfed so I didn’t measure, but I could feel the difference 😁 my lactation consultant said that she recommended fenugreek. She also said to keep the baby at the breast as much as possible as that triggers the body to release more also.

I did and it worked wonders....but now I'm starting to think it had something to do with my weight gain afterwards...I could be wrong....but yes fenugreek helped my supply tremendously. Had a freezer full. So when I stopped feeding directly from the boob I had enough frozen milk to last a long while. I couldn't even get an ounce from pumping with my first baby and I didn't have the fenugreek then

@mariacardnz123, you already know it 😂😂

@anap1012, I will have to make some in the morning can never go wrong with some hot chocolate and sweet bread for breakfast! Lol

mexican chocolate girl!! i’ve never tried fenugreek but this right here works!

I used it. It did help but it made my baby and myself veeeeeery gassy so I had to stop.

Absolutely yes. I use it and my milk has increased quick. I use chocolate flavor. Which comes in a powder form. It taste like cocoa

@oceanna, I will look into that I’ve been taking the mother organic milk tea and it taste horrible lol

@zachattackmomma, how much did you milk supply increase by?

Theirs also the brand “yogi” and it’s a tea that has fenugreek in it and a bunch of other stuff that helps your supply . The tea is called nursing support . I didn’t like the taste at first but i got used to it after realizing it helped a lot

My dr also said it was ok but I've never tried it. I've also heard oatmeal will help increase but most lactation consultants will tell you you cannot increase you milk supply by things you consume. I've never tried but some swear by it. :)
