I take fenugreek and alfalfa to keep my supply up so I can also pump milk to have on hand incase I need to leave baby with a sitter.

I noticed a slight increase at first, but had to stop due to some digestive difficulties with the baby (not due to herb). I have started taking it again, but have not seen results.
