Fenugreek and a gassy baby! Help!

I am exclusively pumping due to latch issues and having a 3 year old to take care of as well, so I started taking some fenugreek a couple days ago to help boost my supply a bit since baby girl is having a growth spurt. Last night it took forever to get our little one to sleep, she is usually a fantastic sleeper! She woke up at 3 am and was awake until about 7:30 and the only way I could calm her down was having her snuggled up on my chest because she was squirming so bad from the gas bubbles and farting like a wild animal(poor girl). Anyone else have this side effect from taking fenugreek? Any ideas on if I should just supplement with formula for a day or so to get this out of my system? I could still save my liquid gold for baths I guess :(

    I think you can take some fennel to counter act it.

    Same issue. She's wriggling in pain.

    I stopped taking it because of the gas. The screaming ending in huge farts made me feel horrible. I had some milk still in the freezer from when I was taking it and now this am he's fussy and super gassy again. Brewers yeast tablets don't give gas supposedly.

    Sorry to hear others are having issues too :( although it's nice to have some input!
    Yiggle09 I know, heartbreaking! I'll have to search for the Brewers yeast
