Sometimes if I feel like I didn't drink enough water the day before I'll start taking them again for a day or so, but I haven't noticed anything weird by doing that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-those-who-used-fenugreekmothers-milk-tea-to-boost-supply#post-2174468 Mon, 11 May 2015 13:24:52 +0000 Mama Bird 2174468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was drinking the tea, and stopped it cold turkey afer maybe two months. I had really weird side effects - my fingers started tingling and I completely lost my appetite. That was not helpful when I was trying to eat enough for myself and DS... unfortunately I was too sleep deprived to figure out what was causing it until a lactation consultant told me to try stopping and taking a different supplement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-those-who-used-fenugreekmothers-milk-tea-to-boost-supply#post-2174430 Mon, 11 May 2015 13:09:45 +0000 snowjewelz 2174430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd just decrease little by little and see~ I never took any of it full time. I also had read that sometimes your body can react to it negatively so I just relied on adding pumping session and eating oats to boost my supply! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-those-who-used-fenugreekmothers-milk-tea-to-boost-supply#post-2174404 Mon, 11 May 2015 12:53:24 +0000 meredithNYC 2174404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Banana330: Okay, I'm taking both the tea and the pills (paranoid second time mom who struggled with supply when breastfeeding LO #1), so I think I will just cut out the pills. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-those-who-used-fenugreekmothers-milk-tea-to-boost-supply#post-2173816 Mon, 11 May 2015 07:28:11 +0000 Banana330 2173816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meredithNYC: I only took it for a day and it gave me horrible gas pains. But I read you can just stop it, the tea you're suppose to continue but the pills you can stop at any point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-those-who-used-fenugreekmothers-milk-tea-to-boost-supply#post-2173800 Mon, 11 May 2015 06:59:34 +0000 meredithNYC 2173800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did you feel comfortable stopping? My LO is nearly 3 weeks and it seems my supply is decent, but I'm kind of scared to stop. On the other hand, I am tired of my sweat stinking like Fenugreek - yuck! </p>
