    I just bought some yesterday!  I've been taking fenugreek for about 2 weeks now with no results, so I'm going to try this next.  I'm just trying to figure out how much to take.  The dosage on the bottle won't be enough.  I am currently taking 9 pills of fenugreek daily.

    I have taken Fenugreek by itself and it really bothered my stomach (it can for some people). I had cramps and diahhrea for the 3 weeks I took it.

    I didn't see an increase in milk production either, but other people wear by it! I hope it helps you!

    Both mother's milk and fenugreek work for me, but you have to use as directed. For the fenugreek, I was taking about 6 pills per day, until the point I was smelling like maple syrup. For the motor's milk, I initially drank 3 cups a day and started back, once my supply was established. These supplements really got me  threw growth spurts.
