My milk supply is decreasing, I was interested in taking Fenugreek a herbal supplement to increase milk production. What do I do?

fenugreek is a seed that is used in cooking for its flavour.
the seed is also crushed and made into a tablet to help with milk prodution, it is quite safe.
side affects are that your sweat and urine smell like maple syrup

It's not recommended in women who are pregnant as it increases the change of miscarriage. I've only heard positive things regarding using it while breastfeeding however.

According to the book "Mother Food" it's okay. Check out that book, it's awesome!
