I've never taken supplements.
I do drink a lot of water, eat granola, and eat lots of pork!

I did after my toddler was born...fenugreek and blessed thistle.

I tried it for a week and a half, but it wasn't doing anything for me and Xander had some sort of allergic reaction to SOMETHING, so I quit it. It tasted terrible anyway, so I'm not sorry to not be on it!
I DO eat oatmeal every morning though!

Pork is supposed to help your supply? I guess all the bacon I've been eating must help then!

Porridge for breakfast every morning, lactation cookies (because I gotta bake anyway) and the occasional cup of lactation tea when I'm feeling "low".

I am done with BF but I took everything out there.
I took Domperidone. I took More Milk Plus. I ate oats like crazy. I ate pork. I drank stout. I ate bananas. Anything that might even help a little, I did.
I have no idea if it worked for me, but I didn't give up out of fear that it might be...and that if I stopped my supply would tank! Ha!

Fenugreek, goat's rue, and blessed thistle. They helped a bit, but not enough to EBF. LO is fed both breast milk and formula. I might consider Domperidone, but all of our local pharmacies have banned its sale, so its rather pricey and inaccessible.
