So Ive been taking 2 caps of Fenugreek 6x a day since sunday along with 2 caps 6x a day of Blessed thistle and 16 oz of Yogi Nursing Mothers tea.
I have not seen an increase in supply which I ams ure I should have seen by now.
I'm pumping 4x a day in order to get enough milk for DC's 3 feedings while I am at work.
Re: Fenugreek not working, what else do I try?
what is that?
I'd suggest adding in another couple of pumping sessions. I pump late at night and around 2-3 a.m. while DD is asleep, too. It kills me, but it helps.
I'd also suggest increasing your water intake (I now drink at least 64 ounces of water a day and I've seen a little increase)
If all else fails, I've heard domperidone is good stuff.

oh yeah oatmeal! I forgot that one. I stopped eating mine for a week and saw a drop in production.
