Customer Reviews of Organic Mother's Milk Tea 16 Bags
Customer Review: helps but not enough for me
Summary: 4 Stars
Mother's milk tea works exceptionally well for some women (friends of mine). For me, it doubled my milk supply which went from 1.5 oz a day (yes, you read that right) to 3 oz a day at its best. I could tell the difference when I didn't drink the tea but the tea alone is not sufficient to boosting milk supply to what is required and typical of a nursing mother. So, I had to supplement with formula for sure! the tea tastes good though and I kind of miss it as I discontinued breast feeding (due to lack of milk supply even with the tea at this point).
Customer Review: Did it work?
Summary: 4 Stars
I had to add lots of honey and some milk to help dilute the strong licorice taste, but after doctoring it, it tasted pretty good. I'm still not sure if it helped increase my milk supply. It might have been all the pumping that I did. Before pumping I guess there was a *slight* increase, but nothing ups lactation like good old fashioned increase in demand. I'll keep it around just in case, but it won't be an absolute necessity. (I've been breastfeeding for 2 1/2 months when my supply began to run low.)
Bottom line, it's fixed now. *shrugs*
Customer Review: I think it works
Summary: 3 Stars
I only gave it three stars because I really don't know if it helps or if it is just my immagination. I have tried this and Fenugreek capsules to help improve my milk supply ( I am NOT a big producer). The Fenugreek just made me smell like maple syrup and I don't think it increased my supply at all. The tea is pleasant tasting with a little sugar added. I actually look forward to drinking it now. I drink four cups a day and have a decent supply. It does make me urinate frequently after I have had a cup but it's not bothersome.Customer Review: moo moo

I was recommended this product from my midwife. I don't really like the taste but I have to say it does have a calming effect on me whilst I'm drinking it. As far as helping with the production of breastmilk, I'm not really too sure. I always have enough for my son (he's 9 weeks) and the Dr. says he's growing fine. Maybe it has something to do with making me less stressful when I'm drinking it which in turn makes my milk come in more? Either way it's a good product to have around when you are breastfeeding.Customer Review: Never worked for me
Summary: 1 Stars
I tried this tea with both my boys. I breastfed both for 10 months. You are supposed to drink about 3-5 glasses a day, I believe, and this was just not realistic for me. The taste is good I have to say.
I used FENUGREEK from the vitamin shoppe (you have to take 6-9 pills each day to really get results). The Fenugreek worked awesome within about 48 hours but you have to take 3 pills 3 times a day. Blessed Thistle goes will with Fenugreek too but I felt like I smelled like a vegetable. WEIRD???
