Milk production...Need advice...

Hi there :) I am scheduled for my C-section on Tuesday but have been having contractions that are still pretty far apart all day today...so we might go in earlier...I was wondering for those of you who are breastfeeding and using things like Fenugreek and Mothers Milk tea..how soon after you had the baby did you start taking them and in what dose? I want to give myself the best possible chance of producing plenty of milk this time...my son who is almost 7 was born pre-op and never breastfed because I wasn't really producing good milk and he was formula addicted from me being in intensive care and him as well :( This time I want to do whatever I can to make sure to produce enough milk....

I was told to take 3 fenugreek capsules 3 times a day. I also took 2 blessed thistle capsules each time I took the fenugreek. I also opened the fenugreek capsules and put it into my mothers milk tea. I'm not taking these anymore because breastfeeding isn't going so good with me due to my baby being sleepy and not very active at the breast and with all the pumpings, feedings and supplementings it became to much....so now I'm breastfeeding and then supplementing. I hope for you that breastfeeding goes as you want it to this time around! I know how difficult it is when it don't!

Hey there,
I started taking Mother's Milk Plus when after two weeks my milk had not come in. I took the maxi reccomended - 2 pills three times a day. It helped a lot for the time I took it! Good luck, and I hope you have a happy, healthy delivery!
