Birth Song BotanicalsLet There Be Milk, Organic Lactation Tincture, Herbal Breastfeeding Supplement with Fenugreek and Goat's Rue, 1oz Bottle

*** Second Review***This is the second bottle I've purchased. The first time I purchased this product, I bought just the 1 oz bottle just in case I didn't like it. This time, I purchased the 2 oz bottle. It's a little more expensive than the first but when I really think about it, I'm ultimately investing in my milk supply - so to me it was worth it. I've had another dip in lactation production (hormones and stress) and this stuff really helps get me back up to where I need my production to be. I have full-time employment and I pump everyday during my lunch break and also pump after work. My job can get incredibly stressful and there were days when I was lucky if I could pump around 6 ounces. With the help of this product, I can get about 10 ounces per pumping session - which for me is awesome. In addition to this product, I am also taking fenugreek and blessed thistle supplements, which also aid in lactation production. This product has fenugreek and blessed thistle already in it, but taking all three has been helping me in my situation; remember, every woman is different. I'm still not used to the taste and I'm still chasing it with ginger ale or sprite just to make it more pleasant. I would still highly recommend this product.***First Review***I read about this product while searching for ideas on how to increase my milk production. This product must be extremely popular, as each time I attempted to purchase, it would be sold out. I finally got lucky and was able to order and purchase this product. This item arrived within 2 days of ordering (4 days earlier than expected) which was a happy surprise. I'm still using this product but I have noticed an increase in milk production already. Results will vary (of course); you have to be dedicated in feeding and pumping to help increase milk production as well. This supplement is helping me get to where I want to be with my supply. The taste isn't all that great - I'll be honest and tell you it's awful lol (it reminds me of the poly-vi-sol vitamins they give babies :p) but heck, the point is to increase milk production, not to satisfy your taste buds; I've been chasing my dosages with ginger ale and I'm fine with it. I would definitely recommend this product to any nursing mother out there looking to increase lactation production.

I’ve only been using this product one day and I’ve already noticed a difference. My son is only 7 weeks and my supply was dropping so I looked around and this product had the most promising reviews. I was worried about the taste from the other reviews so I drink it with the smallest amount of grape juice and it’s worked great. I haven’t pumped yet as my supply before wasn’t enough to pump and breastfeed. If that changes I’ll update this review. My supply tends to be nonexistent at night but as I’m typing this it was leaking out and hadn’t done that since he was born.

As others have said, this may work for some but it did NOT work for me. It made me and my baby gassy and my baby very colicky. He stopped sleeping through the night because of the gas and his stomach aches. He also went on a nap strike. I also noticed like some that my supply actually decreased although slightly. Lactation cookies (store bought and homemade), hydration and eating well did way more to help me personally than these drops. They do taste bad too. Even lemonade couldn't cover up the taste. I dont think this product is inherently bad but I wanted to post a review of my experience so that mammas who need help can make an informed decision and not simply think this product is going to fix all their problems no matter what. Now I'm going to go enjoy delicious cookies instead of choking down these drops...

Update:Does this work? Yes, it worked well for me to get my supply up BUT it made me and my little guy gassy. I thought I could help him with Mylacon but there wasn’t enough in this world that would help him not be gassy. He was super fussy after the third day. I think the only way I’d use this again is if my supply got low again and I would sacrifice a few days of s fussy baby to get it back up, but it did work. Now I just keep it up with him. I took a star off because of the gassiness that he had. If there was a way that you guys can make it and th not get fussy that would be AWESOME.I just got this product Saturday and tried it Sunday evening. I noticed the difference almost immediately and then woke up Monday morning completely FULL to the point that they were literally hard as a rock. I haven’t pumped yet to see if it’s made a difference but I fed my little guy this morning and he was over flowing. The reason I gave four stars is because I JUST started it and will update in about a week. I’m also going to try to pump after I feed my little guy to see if my supply is up like I think it is.As for the taste....it is GROSS. I made the mistake of putting it directly in my mouth. DO NOT do that. Second time around I diluted it with water and took it like a shot then chased it with my morning coffee, didn’t taste it at all. I don’t like the alcohol aspect of the solution but I was looking at the website and they have a non alcoholic version but it’s sold out. I’ll be checking back to try and get it.I would recommend this to new mamas because it worked for me so far.

As a nurse I’m skeptical Of most botanicals without studies, but I was desperate as I wasn’t producing enough milk for my 1 month old. After 3 days taking this 2x a day my supply increased 50%. It’s not delicious. I put the 20 drops in a shot glass then filled it 1/4-1/2 the way up with water and drank quickly following it with more water. The only reason I won’t give this 5 stars is because approximately 12 hours after I took it my baby would have painful gas. Once I stopped the product the regular daily gas stopped. Fortunately my supply stayed increased since stopping. I took the product for 3 weeks. I’d recommend to anyone searching for ways to increase supply, but I’d also advise that you watch for the side effect in your little one.UPDATE: When my period returned 5 months postpartum my daily pumping went from 27oz to 15oz. I figured my baby was older and used to gas so I’d try this product again since it did work to increase supply the first time. 3 doses later I stopped and threw it away because once again my little one got painful (screaming, crying, writhing) gas. My baby cried less with shots than with the gas this stuff caused. It’s not worth having more milk when it causes such discomfort.
