Elizabeth!!

On Wednesday, you mentioned an herb that your doctor suggested you take to help increase your milk supplywhen your son was in the hospital. I meant to ask then, but totally spaced it. What herb was it that you took? TIA!!!

My lactation consultant and doula told me to take blessed thistle and fenugreek. 3 pills of each 3 times a day and you should notice a difference in 3-4 days. Make sure you drink lots of water. You can get them at Shangria La or Smith's Marketplace.

Sorry, Miranda I totally never saw this topic. If you still need the advice here it is. I took fenugreek. It took less than 24 hours to start working. Be prepared though, you might get overkill. You can buy it at any health food store.

Oooo, love Fenugreek. I took about 3-4 pills 3-4 times a day and it worked really fast. I noticed I smelled like maple syrup, but it worked great.
