Legendairy Milk Liquid Gold Organic Lactation Support, 60 Capsules

These are GOLDEN! I took 2 pills a day for 3 days, around the same time each day and my supply definitely increased significantly. This was in addition to increasing my overall calories, galactagogues (oats, ground flax, brewers yeast), water intake, and latching baby more often. My supply had dipped because of my period, and I hadn’t taken my calcium magnesium supplement for the last 2 weeks of my cycle which in the past has helped my supply not dip so significantly. I will definitely be taking my calcium magnesium this cycle! But am super grateful there’s a relatively “quick fix” if my supply ever dips again. And I would like to note the only downside is that it did seem to change my milk and my baby seemed a little more fussy at the breast. And his poop was more orange than yellow for a couple days. But he wasn’t gassy and wasn’t refusing the breast so I won’t deduct a star for that. Just something to be mindful of. Overall I Highly recommend.

I think it is worth trying if you’re struggling with low milk supply and want a more natural option. I used it occasionally and it helped. It is Fenugreek-free (great if you or your baby don’t tolerate it). It is made with organic herbal ingredients. It is in the form of easy-to-take capsules (no weird taste). I noticed an increase in supply after about a few days. Just keep in mind it’s not a miracle fix — things like hydration, frequent feeding/pumping, and proper latch still matter a lot.

I waited several days before leaving a review so I could see if this product would do anything for me. (TLDR - Went from 2ozs to 4 within a week) Now my baby was born near 11lbs. Off the bat she required more than my body could produce. I leaned on formula but never stopped breast feeding, only supplementing heaviest in the first few weeks. Now a bit over a month into pumping and feeding on demand I only ever produced 2oz. My girl typically eats 3 to 4ozs at a feeding, sometimes 2ozs. I've been working hard to keep up with her needs and hope to remove formula entirely. Since using Liquid Gold I have increased from my at best 2oz pumps to now getting 4ozs every 2/3 hours! Sometimes 3ozs but it's a noticeable increase. Even on days where I don't eat my best I'm still pumping more than 2ozs. The first 2 days I saw no real effect but on day 3 I got my first 3oz pump. Day 4 and 5 I'm hitting 4 ozs much more often and 2oz has been my lowest but doesn't happen as often. Of course ladies make sure to eat as best you can and drink water, this isn't a miracle pill. I was already eating as best I could, but adding in Liquid Gold has helped boost my supply so much. I started with taking 6 pills a day and now I'm just taking 4 and maintaining my supply as is. I do wish you got more pills in a bigger bottle because 20 bucks is kind of steep imo but it is worth it. Don't give up Mamas you got this!

UPDATE: Ladies, it can be really easy to disregard critical reviews when you are desperate to increase your milk supply. It’s what I did. And I just want to share the very heavy price my baby and I paid for thinking “it won’t happen to me”. I only ask that you consider the risks with an open mind and watch out for signs of intolerance in your baby. My 8 week old baby had a total of 7 full days of diarrhea and green stools. She averaged 10 bowel movements daily. I called her pediatrician and a lactation consultant who were all kinda stumped and said the herbs should have been out of my system in 2-3 days. I then brought my baby in for a physical exam on her 4th day of diarrhea worried about dehydration. The doctor wasn’t concerned at that point and said to watch for signs of dehydration. By the 6th day there was still no improvement so she told me to go to the ER for evaluation. My baby had an IV put in (a traumatic experience) and received fluids just to be safe. They tested for a bacterial infection which was negative. The doctor said she wasn’t dehydrated and her electrolytes were balanced so they sent us home advising that it may take 7-10 days for her system to normalize. We are so blessed things did not end up worse than they were. But when I say it was the worst week I’ve ever had in a decade it would be an understatement! My worry over this issue sent me spiraling into postpartum anxiety. I felt myself losing my appetite and not being able to sleep even with all my sleep deprivation. It was absolutely horrible. There was just no indication her diarrhea would ever stop! My mind constantly raced: is she absorbing any nutrients? What is this doing to her insides? Is my breast milk hurting her? Should I stop breastfeeding? (devastating) Is it actually an infection that’s causing this? I was exhausted from all the pumping and dumping. Ladies, this situation almost ended my breastfeeding journey. And here I am now with a reduced supply. Baby gets breast milk and topped up with formula now. It is what it is and I’m grateful I have any breast milk for her at all. ORIGINAL REVIEW: This product wrecked my baby’s bowels. Baby is 8 weeks old. I took 2 doses (4 capsules) on Day 1 and 3 doses (6 capsules) on Day 2. No other diet or supplement changes. At the end of Day 2 baby’s frequency of bowel movements increased. By noon on Day 3 the stools turned green. At that point I realized the product was to blame. I had to dump pumped milk from Day 2. I also pumped and dumped the rest of Day 3 and baby got formula. I was so angry!! I don’t make enough milk as it is (hence trying these supplements). Baby is also a bit more gassy than normal and slightly more fussy. I started breastfeeding again once it had been 24 hours since my last dose. It’s the morning of Day 4 and baby is still having frequent bowel movements and green stools. Hoping things regulate today. I’ve been worried about diarrhea in a baby this young and it’s stirring up so much anxiety that I can’t sleep. Will be calling the pediatrician if this issue doesn’t clear on it’s own soon. I’m so upset that this product has wreaked so much havoc on our lives! Will update as things change.

Definitely have seen a slow and steady increase in my output. Pills are easy to swallow and tasteless. This is only a 10 day supply. Uncertain if we are to continue taking them. Only reason I gave it a 4/5.

My supply had dropped from 4-6oz per pump to just 2-3, and my baby was crying at my breast. I got this after it being recommended to me, just saw all the warnings about gas and supply dropping, so I only took half the dose for about the first week. I didn’t really notice a difference. Sometimes I pumped a little more, sometimes it was about the same. Plus I was power pumping once a day. I noticed some gas, specifically with the baby — she had some really smelly gas but didn’t seem uncomfortable. I went up to the full dose. The good news: it worked IMMEDIATELY. Baby was choking at the boob and falling asleep milk drunk, which hasn’t happened since she was a newborn. I was also pumping like 5-6oz in less than ten minutes. I was ecstatic! Until I woke up in the middle of the night with horrible stomach cramping and nausea. I had to take a zofran just so I wouldn’t throw up. Unfortunately my baby was also affected — diarrhea and she was crying from gas pains. I had pumped 8oz the night before and I literally sobbed as I dumped it all down the drain because I couldn’t stand the idea of hurting her further. It doesn’t seem like this happens to everyone who takes the full dose, but if you read the 1-star reviews you’ll see that it happens to enough of us to cause serious concern. Is it worth it for an extra 3oz? Personally, after a night of feeling so sick and so sad for my baby, my answer is NO.

It definitely works! It doesn’t have a taste of after taste. No side effects. I was pumping only 1.5/2 oz total for both breast. After just taking it for a week my output was 4 oz. So it doubled the amount I was pumping. I also drank lots of water, body armor, and oats to help increase! (Which I was doing before the supplements but did not work)

Update 4-5 months later: I take this periodically when I feel my supply dropping and it works great! I take two pills around the same time everyday for 2-3 days. And I try to put baby on the breast a little more. It doesn't bother her tummy at all anymore (although I'm only taking 2), which makes sense now because baby's digestive systems mature over time. She's 6 months now and has outgrown other digestive sensitivities, so apparently this too. I am really glad to have these on hand for when I need them! I'm still on the first bottle. Update a week later: Ok, so I want to explain one way to use this. My baby did end up having painful gas after using this a couple days, but not as bad as some people in these reviews. However, I found that taking 4/day for 3 days boosted my supply. Even though I EBF, I pumped 1-2x/day for those days (and after), to create more demand to sustain the supply. My goal, in addition to making sure baby is satisfied, was to pump 1x/day to build a small stash, and I've been able to do that, even though I stopped taking the pills. If I ever felt my supply dropping in the future, I would just take 2-4 pills for 1-2 days, not enough to bother my baby too much. So I suggest doing it that way. Overall it's too painful for my baby for me to take all the time, but I don't need to, which makes sense why they give you a small dose! Just make sure to increase the demand when you take it and your increased supply can be sustained. Original review: I just started taking this today and decided to take 4/day instead of 6, so far. I took it around 8am and 4pm with my usual sunflower lecithin, but am skipping my 12am dose because my milk supply is good overnight. I have a baby ~8 weeks old and had breastfeeding latch issues which are better, didn't really struggle with supply, but have felt like my baby is still hungry after feedings the last few days. She loads up on calories at 9pm-12am before bed, and I felt like I wasn't replenishing enough in that timeframe, where she feeds over and over. Day supply was also lacking a little during random times. I decided to take this because it's natural, and figured it couldn't hurt. So far, just today, am having great results. Like I said I took 2 this morning and had abundant milk throughout the day, and 2 around 4pm, and have kept her very satisfied tonight, so she's falling asleep after feeds like she was before, not constantly still searching for my breast. I don't plan to do the midnight dose yet, but will later if I need to. It's only day 1 and I just needed a little more milk to top off her feeds and this has definitely given me that. Praise God! I will update again soon if there's anything to add. My baby has had no adverse reactions.
