5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful for working mothers, September 20, 2006

I had a lot of trouble maintaining my milk supply when I went back to work with my first child. I spoke to doctors and nurses, and drank more fenugreek tea than I care to remember. Eventually I just gave up breastfeeding after 6 months because I never had enough.

For my second child, I started looking for help early, before she was even born. My daughter is now 4 months old (I have been back at work for almost 2 months), but I am keeping up (much better than last time) and she is eating 6 oz per feeding! She is off the growth charts, and is actually the size of an 8-9 month old. I take it at maintenance levels daily (1-2 doses) and increase when she goes through growth spurts. I noticed a definite decrease when I stopped taking it.

You can order it in larger amounts directly from the manufacturer (MotherLove) [...]

4.0 out of 5 stars Worked but my baby was sensitive to it., March 9, 2007

I definitely noticed an increase in my milk production after taking More Milk Plus for a few days. However, after about a week, my 3 month old started having a blotchy rash on her face which she was constantly scratching at with both hands. She also became very gassy and had green BMs. I can't say for sure it was due to this product, but it did gradually go away after I stopped taking it. I took Fenugreek capsules when nursing my son and he had no trouble, so I'm not sure whether my daughter is just supersensitive, or if it was one of the other ingredients that bothered her. Or just a coincidence.

I will say that just taking it for the couple weeks before she developed the rash, I have gone from being able to pump 3-4 ounces per session to 5-6 ounces and am now able to send enough milk with her to daycare without having to supplement with formula, even after I stopped taking it. This is probably partially due to increasing the number of pumping sessions on the weekends, but within a day of starting the supplements I noticed stronger letdowns that lasted longer and resulted in larger volumes, so I am pretty sure the supplement was having an effect.

So, I would definitely recommend More Milk Plus if it your baby isn't sensitive. The reaction she had was pretty mild and she might have tolerated it better if I had lowered the dose from the maximum (4 capsules a day). A lot of people reported success with as little as one capsule a day.

4.0 out of 5 stars Actually worked, February 23, 2007

After doing some research and talking to a LC I decided to try this product w/ some reservations. I figured it was worth a try to boost my milk supply. It actually worked. I didn't see much of a difference taking 1 pill 4xs as per the instructions 1st recommendation, but I noticed a big difference after taking 2 pills 3xs a day (also per instructions). I did, however, quickly run out. I ordered a second bottle and found that my supply has re-established at a much higher production rate, and I didn't take any more of them. Also expect to be a little sweaty and to smell like maple syrup after its gotten into your system. The payoff was good and I would purchase them again if necessary.
