I have looked online for methods to incease my milk supply while breastfeeding my one month old daughter and came across a website (motherlove.com) and I see supplements that I can take that is supposed to increase your milk supply. Has anyone used these product and did it work?

harpchick - 92 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) When I was breastfeeding my last baby, I had a drop in milk supply at one point. My lactation consultant recommended an herbal tea (available at the grocery store in the natural foods/supplements section) for nursing mothers. I drank it as directed, and it really did help.
