I just wanted to share my experience.
I had to pump from day 1. Using a hospital grade pump, I have pumped every 2 to 3 hours and every 4 hours overnight. My milk supply started out great and kept decreasing, although I followed everything the lactation consultant told me. So I went back in and she told me to try Breastea (do a websearch for it). I was a bit skeptical because I didn't think herbs could make that big of a difference, and it had pretty much come to the point of me not nursing anymore because of low milk supply. As a last ditch effort, I ordered the tea. I received it a few days later in the afternoon and started on it same day. Literally overnight it started working. I woke up the next morning engorged. I have continued to drink it daily, and I am now pumping 5 to 5 1/2 ounces. It has really worked great, and I am able to continue feeding baby breastmilk.
