Organic Mother's Milk Women's Tea

I am currently nursing twin girls and have had quite a few bumps along the way. I guess you could say it was the perfect storm for something to go wrong. Nursing multiples, returning to work full time and having babies that slept through the night wrecked havoc on my body. When they were 3 1/2 months old, I developed a blocked milk duct on one breast, which led to a milk blister. I did all kinds of research online and did everything I was supposed to do: compresses, massaging, extra nursing and pumping, etc. Once the milk blister burst, it ended up leading to mastitis. I was put on an antibiotic for 10 days and missed 3 days of work. At this time, despite my increased pumping and nursing, my milk supply went down. I was barely producing 2 oz from each breast at a single pumping session which led me to tap into my freezer stash. My babies drink three 5 oz bottles at day care - each (total needed: 30 oz - not including what I feed them at home before and after day care). And here I was barely getting 2 oz for each baby, times three pumping sessions (total producing: 12 oz if I was lucky, not including what they got from me when I nursed before and after day care). My coworker told me about the Mother's Milk tea. I didn't realize what I ordered was an entire case, but looking back, it was well worth it. I am not a tea drinker at all. I have always wanted to acquire a taste for tea and tried a million different kinds, made a million different ways. This tea, at first, tasted horrible! Everyone is different, but this is what worked for me. I figured, I don't like my coffee super hot and need to let it cool down, so tea might be the same way. I quickly found out that drinking it cold was far worse than anything I have ever tasted. Because of the taste, I also drank it sparingly. Based on the way I was drinking it in the beginning (or, more appropriately, NOT drinking it) I did not see much for results and almost gave up on nursing all together. I came back to the Amazon site and read more reviews and then decided to try a different approach. Here is what really worked for me: make and drink a cup of tea within the hour prior to nursing or pumping. Take a cup with a lid, or make your own lid using a plate, add the tea bag, then add the water. At home, I use a cup of water heated up from the microwave for about a minute to a minute and a half (depending on how hot the water was from my faucet), at work, I use the hot water spout from our water cooler, cover and let it sit and seep for about 8 - 10 minutes. After the 8 - 10 minutes have passed, I dip the tea bag a few times, then squeeze it out before discarding. Then I add in about a teaspoon of honey. Be sure to use the honey from the teddy bear bottle because it is cooked honey and not honey from a neighbor's back yard....(that's another story about bacteria and what is safe and not safe for babies.) Stir and drink. I drink it rather quickly and used to have to hold my breath when I drank it, but not so much any more. I still drink it quickly, but I don't have to hold my breath. It is much more bearable this way. The taste has actually grown on me and I look forward to drinking that warm cup of tea. Since I have started drinking it more consistently, five times a day, I have noticed my production has most definitely increased! I went from barely 2 oz from each breast to 5 oz and sometimes more, out of each breast. I am now producing what the babies are drinking the next day at day care. I am still hoping to be able to add back to my freezer stash, but that will come in time. I am proud to say that the babies are just over five months at the time of writing this review and are still being fed exclusively on breast milk (no formula) and two meals a day of oatmeal and/or stage 1 baby food. Hope this helps someone. Good luck to all!

I love this tea; my baby has a shallow latch, so I try to breastfeed ( even it is hurtful) during the day and try to pump over night, so I noticed that during the day I started having less milk; I started drinking this tea and noticed milk supply increase right in one day; I drink it twice or maximum 3 times a day; I love the flavour too! Almost forgot! Price for the value! Usually milk supply increase drinks cost a lot but not with this tea!

I have a 2 week old baby that LOVES to nurse. He loves to suck I think partly for the comfort of it at times. I have had an amazing milk flow production so far... however, a few days ago, I felt like I was running low, and I found myself drinking a chamomile vanilla tea about 3 times a day. I LOVE herbal teas... so I thought, why not drink tea that will actually help with producing more milk. I have been eyeing this on amazon lately. I read a lot of reviews about taste, etc. So I wanted to try it first. I send my husband to our local organic health food store. MIND you, he paid about $8 for ONE box of 16 bags of tea. I immediately tried some, and I take my tea with honey... and I REALLY liked it. I was thinking to myself, why others do not like the taste?! Another thing worth mentioning, I use my Keurig coffee maker to brew the HOT water, in my 16oz Contigo cup. I dont like the idea of a hot cup of tea around my baby without a lid and am paranoid it would burn someone. I carry my Contigo cup everywhere with me, full of tea. That said, I only use 1 tea bag in my 16onz cup. This is double the size they say to use on the box. However, I dont think it is bad... You should drink significantly MORE water when you're nursing. I actually always have my 30onz cup of ice water. I do drink this tea before bed, typically 1 to 2 16onz cups. I drink the same sized cup in the morning when I wake up, and throughout the day I drink it either over ice, or in the hot cup... As I said, I like the taste, and being that I am not going on 3 days drinking this, I can see the difference. If the difference is because of this tea, or just the fact that my son nurses A LOT and my body is making more milk to compensate for that fact, I dont care. I like the tea and will continue to drink it. THIS price here is the BEST I have found around. I subscribed and saved too. I suggest watering down the tea a little if you think it tastes too strong and put some honey in it. Honey is better than sugar and tastes delicious inside...

Sólo puedo decir que sí funciona. Lo que pasa es que por ejemplo, en mi caso. Tengo que tomarlo pocos días y luego parar otros días y así porque noto que si lo tomo siempre a diario como que mi cuerpo se acostumbra y genera tolerancia y pierde efecto. Supongo que eso es cosa de que cada cuerpo es distinto distinto y reacciona de una manera. Pero de que mejoría en la producción de mi Leche , la hay.

☹️☹️☹️I will give zero out of ten. It's not helpful at all. I ordered the sixth package, I finished four of them, and nothing different. I say like every other day I will drink and then it will be maybe change no for me it's not helpful at all I don't recommend it
