More Milk Plus -BF moms
I pump mostly, and BF once/day. I don't produce a lot of milk since going back to work. I started using More Milk Plus from Motherlove on Monday. For anyone who has used it - did it work? How long did it take? It hasn't made a difference for me yet. Should I take more than the bottle says? I'd hate to be drinking that yucky stuff for nothing!

Re: More Milk Plus -BF moms
Where did you get it? Does it taste really bad?

Re: More Milk Plus -BF moms
I have to look at home as to where I bought it, but I found out about it through here. I bought it online. You don't take a lot of it, but that little bit kinda burns and leaves a bad taste in your mouth for a few minutes.

Re: More Milk Plus -BF moms
It worked wonders for me - I saw a difference after taking just 2 doses.
I mix it with a little bit of OJ..it makes it more bearable to drink.
Are you not drinking anything 20 min. before & 20 minutes after?

Whole Foods or some health food stores. Also on Amazon.

I think I am in the minority, but it didn't work for me at all. I followed the directions to the letter and saw no difference.

Yeah, I make sure not to drink anything else except the allowed 1-2 oz. of liquid. I tried it with OJ, but to me that just meant I had more of yucky tasting stuff to drink (as it made the OJ taste gross), so instead I do a 1-2 oz. OJ or water chaser 
I do eat afterwards at times. Do you think that's bad?

Re: More Milk Plus -BF moms
If you have a pump you can throw in some extra pumping sessions in addition to using the MMP. I usually saw a difference within 2-3 days. I would follow heh dosing instructions. They are based on weight so make sure you are on the right one

Thanks. I'm going to try this. I'll be real diligent about how and when I take it this weekend. We'll see if I notice any changes. If not, the bottle will probably be on the Sell/Swap thread
