Fenugreek and BFing

I started taking Fenugreek yesterday.  Three pills three times a day.  Wow... I had no idea it could make such a huge difference!  I usually pump between 8-9 ounces between three pumpings at work. Today I have pumped twice and have already gotten 8.5 ounces.  I am having tummy troubles though but I think it is totally worth it.  Yay!

    That is great that it is working so well for you!  If it is giving you tummy issues, you might consider trying mother love more milk plus.  It was easier on my stomach, and seemed to work better for me.

    Wow, that's awesome!  I was taking Fenugreek pills (9 pills a day), Mother's milk tea (3-5 a day) and Fenugreek cookies in the earlier weeks.  I am not sure how much milk production is considered average but they did help to increase my milk production.
