After a couple weeks of taking the fenugreek, I finally got tired of having a stomach full of it all day long, so I cut down to taking it only when I remembered; about once a day. It wasn't performing any miracles anyway.
In a last ditch effort, last week I bought some maple-myrup flavored oatmeal. The first day I ate it I pumped another ounce or so. I figured it was just a coincidence. But every single day I eat the oatmeal I pump consistently more and more. Today, I got almost 8 ounces in one session! I used to get FOUR from that session. That really floored me.
All in all, I'd say my supply has increased by at least 50% since I started with the oatmeal. I went from bringing home about 10 ounces, to now bringing home around 15 ounces, and today I may actually do more than that.
I am told the "maple syrup" flavoring actually does come from fenugreek – but I highly doubt that is what helped my supply if taking bottle fulls of the fenugreek caplets wasn't really helping.
Those with supply issues – Try oatmeal!!!! Our pediatrician even told me that real oatmeal cookies will work just as well, so that's a great excuse to eat cookies!
