What are good ways to build supply?

I want to make sure I have a good supply for LO who constantly seems ravenous. What's worked for you ladies aside from nursing on demand and pumping sessions?

    Keep nursing. If he is ravenous, he is telling your body to build supply, which is exactly what you want. :)

    Ditto pps. Nurse on demand, drink and eat plenty and get as much rest as you can.

    I have noticed a big difference after drinking "Mother's Milk Tea"...I used to only pump 2 oz a session and now get almost 4 oz pretty consistently.

    Using herbs has helped my supply a lot. I was already pumping every 2 hours and every 3 hours overnight but I've been struggling with production dropping. My LC recommended herbs and I've seen a steady increase ever since I started. I've been using a combination product from breastfeedingherbs.com. Just make sure to use it daily and keep on breastfeeding/pumping often.
