If you are breastfeeding, you may be in search of ways to increase your milk supply and promote milk production

Mother's Milk is a tea of herbal origins with a range of seeds, roots, and leaves known for their milk-boosting properties, in particular, fenugreek, fennel, anise, coriander and blessed thistle.

These are herbs that have traditionally been used as galactagogues — milk-making aids.

Studies have suggested that fenugreek, a key ingredient in Mother's Milk, may increase milk production in breastfeeding women, with some mums reporting that a few cups of this tea every day has helped their bodies to make more milk.

While studies have suggested this ingredient promotes healthy lactation, it hasn't been proven.

Before buying Mother's Milk:

Mother’s Milk tea can be found at many pharmacies and health stores, as well as online.

However, the tea is intended for boosting the milk supply, not for maintaining it.

Once milk levels are sufficient for you and your baby, you don't need to continue consuming it, according to The Bump.

This tea is intended for use when nursing, but it's always best to discuss any supplement products with your healthcare practitioner.

Always check ingredient list if you have any allergies.

If pregnant and breastfeeding, consult your healthcare practitioner before drinking.
