Tea/Herb for increasing supply during pregnancy?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Does anyone know the name of the product that is supposed to help sustain your milk supply during pregnancy? It's some kind of tea or herb-based supplement. I cannot remember what it is called, nor am I using the right search term to enable me to find it.

I don't think the herbal blends are considered 100% safe during pregnancy. I would recommend lots of oatmeals and nettle infusions.

There really is no way to really increase your supply while pregnant. It's all hormonal. I, too, would suggest oatmeal and the like but would definitely suggest avoiding any of the usual herbal recommendations. Pretty much everything I've read suggests they aren't safe for use in pregnancy.

Mothers Milk tea or fenugreek can not be used during pg. Fenugreek can cause uterine stimulation, most nursing teas contain fenugreek. More Milk Two is the name of the tincture that does not contain it. In my experience with nursing moms, many have said that it has not worked for them, it didn't for me either. Supply during pg is so hormonally based that none of the regular tricks work, you will either be one of those that do or don't have milk during pg.
