Motherlove Moringa (60 Liquid caps)

At about six weeks postpartum, my supply dipped for some unknown reason. I exclusively breastfeed and had also been pumping once a day so that my husband could occasionally give the kiddo a bottle while I'm cooking dinner, in the shower, etc. With the dip in my supply, Baby was still getting fed, but I wasn't producing enough to pump extra anymore. It was so stressful and I felt like I couldn't step away from the baby for even a minute. After a lot of research, I decided to try this stuff out in combination with increasing my water intake, and I'm very happy with the results! Within a couple of days, I began producing enough to pump an extra bottle, and even begin building a freezer stash by using my Haakaa to catch the increased letdown on the other side while nursing. This has has significantly boosted my supply!

After being recommended fenugreek by a well-meaning friend (and it not working and causing stomach aches for my LO), I got advice from a lactation consultant who recommended malunggay. She specifically said try malunggay first and if that doesn't work, then mother's milk plus. I never had to use mother's milk plus. It takes time for this to work. Maybe 2-4 weeks. I took 2 per day, per the consultant's recommendation. Look at the instructions carefully; they recommend more if you weigh more, and they advise to only drink 1-2 oz of water at the time of taking it. It was one of those things where I didn't realize it was even working but realized I was supplementing less, and some days none. I decided to increase to (3) pills per day and got over supply. Once it started working, I ran out of pills and thought, maybe I don't need to take this anymore. Slowly but surely I noticed a decrease in supply. I started again and the process started over. 12 months in I still take 1-2 per day. Couple more tips. Read the book "The Breastfeeding Mother's Guide to Making More Milk." Got some real helpful tips. Also, my lactation consultant didn't seem to think I had supply issues. Somewhere along the way I realized that it was a slow letdown issue. In the early days LO would give up if the milk didn't come right away. LO eventually learned to be patient. This meant I tried switching each breast twice and if I still had nothing, I gave supplement - at some point when you have a sobbing baby at your breast, withholding food is just cruel - it's not about one's ego to exclusively breastfeed. LO learning to trust the breast was a combination of giving 2 oz first so that LO wasn't starving and more likely to be patient for a letdown, taking these supplements, and LO would fall asleep at the breast and cough because of an unexpected letdown which would often cause a surprised smile. Good luck with your journey!

This is the best supplement for increasing or maintaining milk supply. Love it!

Unfortunately didn’t work me and caused upset stomach for both baby and I.

This definitely increased my milk supply. But it also made my baby so gassy, cranky and miserable, to where I had to stop taking it. Something to keep your eye on if you use this!

I didn’t find these very effective in increasing my supply, maybe because you have to take 6 a day. They smell terrible. I had truly high hopes after reading other reviews but I didn’t feel as though I got my moneys worth out of it. I’ve tried for a month with these supplements thinking maybe I didn’t give it enough time and although I didn’t always get all six pills in a day I usually got atleast 4.

My baby is 2 months and before I was able to make enough milk to feed him and pump a stash. Recently we started him on a bottle because I was getting pains and fevers from mastitis but I was still pumping. After a couple weeks I notice I was producing less milk, went from 6 onces every session to 2-4 onces if it was a good day. I started drinking Mother’s milk tea i got at target to see if it would help and noticed I was producing more little by little. I did some research and came across these supplements. Moringa together with More Milk Special Blend my pump sessions went back to about 6 onces almost over night!! I take them after every session. I’m happy I’ll be able to grow my stash before I return to work. Definitely with the try!

They didn’t work for me. I used up the whole bottle and my milk supply didn’t change at all.

It wasn't effective for me because it didn't work and it was too expensive.

Very effective and helped me increase my supply. Pricey but worth it if you really want to pursue breastfeeding as long as you could.

This product worked great for me! With my first baby I tried every supplement and nothing really worked. I ended up triple feeding and had to supplement with formula. This time around, I have been able to exclusively BF! I've only been using for a few days, but since using this product, my breasts feel fuller, let down feels stronger, baby seems more satisfied and I have even been able to collect a little extra for my freeze stash! Every woman is different, so this might not work for everyone, but I would absolutely reccomend giving it a try! Only downside is price. I'm taking 6 a day (might try reducing to 4 a day) so a bottle only lasts 10 days. But at this point, I am so overjoyed that it's working that I am fine with the price.

I tried the moringa supplement but it did not have the desired effect for me.

It worked for me. I’m a just enough mom, barely enough when I don’t take it. But these capsules helped a lot, I missed one day and my supply went down. Recommend for sure
