Frida MomPostpartum Gummies for Lactation | Chewable Supplement Made with Fenugreek + Milk Thistle to Increase Milk Supply | 60 Count

Got this supplement to help with milk supply and I feel I noticed a difference within days. It’s easy to take as they are gummies, I take three every morning.

I have been taking these for about 4 months. I’m not producing as much milk and I would like to, but I think that’s just my body. These definitely increased my supply, and I see an immediate decrease in my supply if I run out of these. They smell and taste *interesting* lol, but you get used to it. I have to take 2-3 gummies about 4 times a day, so I go through one of these bottles every 10 days. I am also taking a few other lactation supplements on top of these, and it’s been a lot of trial and error getting my supply to increase. But it’s worth it knowing I am feeding my baby. These are not the cheapest either, but I think they are worth it because they work for me. If you are struggling with your supply, try a bunch of different supplements and even mix and match, and don’t give up if something doesn’t work. It just means your body needs something else. Also do not forget to take your vitamins. When I started taking iron, vitamin d3, vitamin c, magnesium, omega 3, and a prenatal vitamin with iron, I saw an increase. I have a suspicion that women who have a low supply are deficient in various vitamins and elements and their body would make more milk if it could, but it can’t give up any more nutrients to make milk. Also, I need to drink 64-128 oz of water a day or my supply drops. Breast feeding is so hard, but worth it Mama…you got this!!! (I am still supplementing by baby with formula and nursing as much as she wants)

I was really pinning my hopes on these gummies. Being postpartum, anything that makes life a little easier is a win, and chewing a couple of gummies sounded way better than dealing with teas or giant pills for lactation support. Plus, it's Frida Mom, and I've generally had good experiences with their other stuff.I opened the bottle, and the first whiff wasn't super encouraging, but I thought, "Okay, maybe they taste better." Well, I popped one in my mouth and honestly, I just couldn't handle it. The taste was... intense, and not in a good way. It's really hard to describe – not really fruity, maybe a bit medicinal or herby but with this weird artificial tang underneath? It just hit my taste buds all wrong, and left this lingering flavor that I really disliked.I tried, I really did. But I couldn't bring myself to take another one after the first day. It doesn't matter how great the ingredients might be (like the Fenugreek and Milk Thistle) if you physically can't make yourself chew and swallow the product, you know?So, unfortunately, I can't tell you if they actually help with milk supply because I couldn't stick with it for more than a single dose. Huge disappointment, because the convenience would have been amazing. I will have to send them back. If you're really sensitive to odd tastes, you might want to be cautious with these.

Did not see much of an increase in milk supply. It did help some, but only for no more then 20 ml increase. I used this product fatefully for 2 months to see results and only the increase as I said above and product stated that it could provide much more. If you need a little more in your milk supply then this is the product for you, but I will not be purchasing again. Did not live up to the hype it portrayed.

I don’t like the taste, but that is pretty normal for fenugreek supplements. It’s not so bad I couldn’t take them every day. I used these every day for a month or two and it helped my supply go from 0.5 ounces per day up to 4 full ounces per day. Unfortunately, breast feeding just didn’t work out for me (my son drinks 32 ounces per day to put it in perspective). However, these supplements did increase supply. I think for the average woman, this would really help. Also, if you have 3 of these supplements in one day, the smell can start to seep out of your skin. It grossed my husband and me out, but we got used to it.

I love these! They taste very natural not like the “fake” mango/fruit candy flavor. You can smell something similar to fermented fruit when you open the bottle but I’m not bothered by it by any means. I do feel my baby gets more satisfied when I eat these gummies so they may really work.

I wish I had this for babies 1&2, but I had to supplement with formula with them. I took this in the first week of having baby #3 and although I did have to supplement with formula a few days due to jaundice and weight gain concerns, I was able to cut out the formula in a matter of no time! I took these breakfast, lunch and dinner until I smelled like maple syrup (about 4 days...but I did forget a few times). By then, my baby seemed satiated after feeding and I stopped feeding her formula. I took a few more gummies sporadically when I felt like my supply was dropping again, but honestly, it was probably just in my mind, and not necessary to do . However, it didn't hurt anything. I pumped today (baby is now 1 month old) and had 5 oz in that one session. I haven't had any oversupply issues with my milk. My baby does struggle with gas and I do wonder if it is because I took this supplement, but I doubt that is the case since it has been so long. I'm glad there are plenty more gummies in case my supply tanks later like if I start menstruating again or for any other reason.

I'm usually a person that will get past flavor if it's something beneficial but this is NOT something I can pass. The taste is terrible! I just don't see myself taking this 3 times a day or all 3 at once. I love Frida mom, they really did save my vag after delivery. Definitely recommend their post partum products. But these gummies, they gotta figure out the flavor. I rather take it in pill form. Yuck!!Will update if I end up taking it at least for a week to check if it helps supply but...I doubt it >_<
