Motherlove Herbals Lactation Pack: Got milk?

If you are looking for herbal ways to increase your lactation - Motherlove Herbals is THE company to go to.  Galactogogue herbs have been proven to increase breast milk. You can drink them in a tea form or take liquid herbal extracts or capsules of the following herbs: fenugreek, blessed thistle, nettle, anise, dill, fennel seed, goat's rue, raspberry leaf, and alfalfa. Since I want to increase my milk supply, I turned to Motherlove for herbal supplements.

I have been testing out their Lactation Pack. It was a good way to see what versions of their lactation - inducing products I preferred. Click here to find out the differences between the various Motherlove products.

The lactation pack ($21.95) contains:
1 oz. More Milk Plus Liquid Extract
1 oz. Goats Rue Liquid Extract
Sample sizes of More Milk Plus and Goats Rue Vegetarian Capsules
1/4 oz. Nipple Cream
1/4 oz. Diaper Rash & Thrush Relief

With the More Milk Plus Liquid Extract added to my iced tea, you could notice the taste a little bit. And, since I am not used to taking herbal tinctures, I liked the capsules better. The company said that is a common thing - people used to taking herbal remedies prefer using liquid herbal supplements. I liked taking the More Milk Plus Vegetarian capsules (and I actually just ordered two bottles of it for my continued use). The included nipple cream and diaper rash cream have already come in handy (and were such a great small size that I can take them in my diaper bag).

Motherlove Herbals also makes great natural products for labor, delivery and baby.  I also recently reviewed their fab labor and birth products, click here to read that review.

I personally used the More Milk Plus Liquid Extract when I returned to work (I was plagued with supply issues). I didn't mind the liquid, I put it in a little bit of water and downed it and didn't mind it. I also chased it with a lot of water, so the weird taste didn't get a chance to linger. It definitely helped and I recommend it to anyone who just wants to help maintain their supply!
