I used it and it really helped. I think it help MORE then the fenugreek. But that was just for me. Hey you might try taking the pills washed down with the tea couldn't hurt. Worse that could happen is you have A TON of milk and you could always just pump. Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 21, 1999 Report Share Posted January 21, 1999 Hi all, Sorry I haven't posted since signing up, things have been hectic.. My son (10-28-98) takes his first big BF'ing session first thing in the morning (He sleeps from about 8pm - around 7-7:30am) While he eats I pump from the other side, I get around 7-9 oz (depending on the day) in one session. The rest of the day I might get 2-3 oz each pumping.(Which of course he woofs down right after BF'ing) Seems between 5pm-7 pm he is the most fussy (I dont want to say cranky).. I let him nurse on demand but it doesn't seem like he's getting enough.. So now instead of freezing the 7-9oz bottle I get in the morning (for my freezer supply) I've been giving that to him right before his normal bedtime, which seems to satify him greatly. I've been eatting oatmeal in the mornings (at this point I can only take so much of that, laff), I've been pumping as much as I can but when he's not eatting on the otherside I have major problems just trying to get " let down' started. I've also started taking Fenugreek (which works really well if I want to be engorged in the mornings (Not that Im complaining since it helps with the freezer supply), plus he gets a whole lot more at the morning feedings.. Just wish I knew what to do for the rest of the early part of the evening for him, I hate seeing him like that. I make sure to feed on demand, I make sure he has a clean diaper on, I make sure to burp him (even when Im just walking/bouncing him around I'm always patting his back incase one is stuck), I always have him where I am in the house (so he can see me), I even carry him around in the snuggli, etc. Sorry this is sooo long, (Didnt mean to write a book).. I just need some sugestions or something on this... -Elizabeta (Mom I am, to (5-17-95) and (10-28-98) ________________________________________________________ NetZero - We believe in a FREE Internet.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 1999 Report Share Posted January 21, 1999 Her Fennel Tea all day long and also a big cup at night will get your supply up BIG time! I have been taking it during the day so I have enough for her cluster feedings at night, I want them to chill out a little bit so I want to have enough without her cluster feeding! Hope this helps!
