I ate a ton of lactation cookies...no idea if they actually helped, but they sure were tasty! I also drank mother's milk tea and tried to drink as much water as possible. I'm not sure exactly what helped, but my supply was (and still is at 10 months) great.

Fenugreek and getting sufficient calories. I always pumped more if I ate steak than a salad for dinner.

Fenugreek and blessed thistle. I really noticed the difference.

Power pumping, I would see a noticeable difference after just a few days. Otherwise, TONS of water, enough calories, and getting a good night's sleep. Basically taking care of myself, which isn't always easy to fit in.

I never gained a full supply but what helped the most was oatmeal, almonds (in butter or milk form), CALORIES, and rest.

I made lactation cookies with plenty of oatmeal and brewer's yeast, and I can always tell the difference by the next day.

More calories, more nursing, 2 gallons of water (20oz was gatorade) a day, having a high protein snack and a glass of water them taking a nap=boom milk.

its winter here, so lots of chicken soup, greek style

Nursing on both sides on demand helped my supply.
