Fenugreek

Will 12 daily help produce milk or do I need to up it? I thought I read somewhere it needed to be more.

Re: Fenugreek

  • 12 is good. 3-4 pills 3 times per day.

  • I don't get the maple syrup thing, but I have heard that several times. I am trying to up my supply with fenugreek right now, and have tried once before without much success...but the only thing I smelled like was the gross way the pills smell!! Like seriously, I swear my pits smelled like it!!!!!! 

    I was so grossed out that I quit taking it after about a week, but this time I am desperate to see some results.. So I'm sticking with it: stinky fenugreek pits and all!!!! 

    Side note: anyone know when I will see some results if this stuff is working??

    This is what I have heard as well.
