My supply dropped drastically when my baby was about 4 months old, to the point where we had to supplement with formula to keep her full. I started taking these in the morning and took 2 immediately, 2 more in the afternoon, and 1 before bed. By the next morning (just under 24 hours) I was able to feed my daughter and pump extra. What a great feeling!! I've continued taking 1 pill 3xs daily for the past week and am also drinking Mothers' Milk tea 3-5xs/day. My supply is back up and I'm able to store about 6oz per day in addition to feeding my little one.I was worried about spending money on something that may or may not work, but it was worth it. I picked this brand specifically in hopes that it wouldn't have the side effects regular fenugreek supplements do, but I still smell like maple syrup & licorice from the fennel. Even so, it's a small price to pay for a full & happy baby.
