KathrynW - 2 months ago. The licorice taste bugged me at first but I actually enjoy it now. I just put some honey in it. I used to pump only 1 - 2 oz a breast but drinking two cups of tea a day, I get about 4oz every time I pump. I pump in between feedings and still get that much. Awesome tea. Did wonders. Best nursing 5 out of 5 stars. Kristen - 2 months ago. My husband aunt bought me this tea when I felt like I was struggling with building my supply up after having to supplement in the beginning with formula.
So with my second child, I ended up having to exclusively pump in the beginning because he was born so tiny and was too weak to suckle strong enough to remove milk even from a bottle! I kept drinking it still 1 cup with 4 tea bags!
This stuff is awesome!! I eventually stopped pumping and started exclusively nursing and my supply dropped. My advice is to combine the tea with a Moringa supplement and power pumping and drink more water also. I also notice a difference when I left the bags sit in the freshly boiled water covered for a while before I pour it in my cup. Load 8 more. Get top deals, latest trends, and more. Email address.
