Happy Healthy Hippie Pump It Up Lactation Supplement – Postnatal Vitamins for Women Breastfeeding | Supports Breast Milk Supply Increase | Fennel Seed, Chamomile, Motherwort, Raspberry Leaf | 60 Ct

I’m a mother who is 7 months pp and have struggled since my baby’s birth with milk supply. I found out the hard way that Fenugreek didn’t work for me, it seemed to be decreasing my milk supply. That’s when I found these supplements, and they’re the best thing I’ve tried. They help with my supply and I’ve even been in a better mood since taking them. I’m not super tired these days, and I have a consistent supply when I pump bottles for my baby. Now I will say, I don’t have enough supply for storage, that just hasn’t been my journey however, I am more than happy with the results I am able to produce for my baby. Hope these vegan supplements work for other mamas out there!

Helps increase supply , useful during growth spurts

The first few times I tried the product I loved it. But then I ordered few more and I had the worst stomach cramps. Unfortunately I had to stop using it. It also made me very boated and gassy. I’m not sure maybe it was the batch I received? Try it and see if it works for you. Everyone is different. I still have 2 unused bottles that I wasted.

Let me start by saying that I don’t normally post reviews unless it’s beneficial to other people.BE VERY CAREFUL WITH YOUR CHILD AND THIS PRODUCT.First of all, this did not help my milk supply at all. It made me super gassy and so uncomfortable. At first, I thought it was my diet so I changed that. Then I started drinking more water thinking I was dehydrated. Then after my 5th day, I looked towards my medications that I take and the ONLY new pill was this one. After stopping it for a few days, I felt so much better.Now on to my baby! I have a 6 week old that had normal bowl patterns. Literally would eat and poop, until I started taking these pills. He became severely constipated (so bad that we bought the Windee product to relieve his trapped gas and constipation). He was straining, grunting and crying hysterically just to get gas out! His poor little belly was hard as a rock and so tender, he would scream if we touched him. We were doing the bicycles, Tummy time, gripe water & chamomile tea *not with anise* around the clock... I mean you name it, we tried it. The Windee product literally saved us!***(FYI: use caution with Anise and infants as it can cause seizures)***Good thing I was only on these pills for 5 days and not any longer or we may have rushed my baby to the ER!Please be cautious when purchasing things & ask the pediatrician. It’s better safe than sorry & I’m truly sorry I bought this product and put my baby under so much unnecessary stress!

My background:• I have no medical conditions that would effect my milk supply. Nor does our son.• My second child born: 6/16 - no complications. He was four days early, slightly jaundice. We had to bottle feed for a little bit.• We mostly nurse & pump - my goal is to nurse 85% of the time.• Pump- I use a double electric Medela pump. An older model.• If little man still acts hungry, won't latch, and I don't have any breast milk - we sup formula.Reason why I purchased prodcut:Wanted to have an extra supply to freeze.I've been taking this product for about a week now. I've maybe increased supply by a few ounces, nothing dramatic. I pump in between feedings - only four times a day. He nurses all the time.Energy levels - not sure if it helped to be honest. I drink 6oz of coffee in the morning and eat a pretty healthy diet. I'm also getting blocks of 3-4 hours of sleep.Side effects: I haven't had any that were noticeable. No stomach aches or decrease in milk supply.Photos: Me holding our son & the milk I just pumped twenty minutes ago. My son just nursed for 15-20m. I haven't pumped since 11pm last night (So, 12 hours).I hope this helps. There are so many factors that effect your milk supply. I also see a lactation consultant once a week. I highly recommend it. Good luck ladies!

Having a baby is hard. Having a baby during Covid is even harder.I was due with my 4th baby in early May of 2020, though it had been almost a decade since I’d had my last. I struggled to varying degrees to maintain my milk supply with baby 2 and 3 and was excited to see what the developments in lactation support might be able to do- expecting to need a booster at some point.I couldn’t, however, have ever expected how Covid-19 would effect my postpartum life. As a self-employed hairstylist, I have never had the luxury of maternity leave- I typically schedule myself out of work for 5-6 weeks- not knowing when the baby might come in that time. Then return to a limited schedule. This pregnancy was no different in planning, but way different in actuality.My job was shut down in mid March for quarantine. Baby, luckily, came a few weeks early; healthy, happy and big! My milk came in as usual, and the weeks started to fly by.Mid June we were told we could return to work. My baby was 7 weeks old, I’d been out of work for 12 weeks. My partner had 2 weeks left of his leave and I had over 100 clients displaced and eager to get in. We made the decision as a family that I would get as many people in during those two weeks as was possible. And it was, by far, the most exhausting time of my life.I worked 12 days straight with 12-14 hours each day. I would feed the baby early in the morning and pump then go to work. I failed to plan enough h time to pump, and when I did have time, the salon was too busy and the bathroom unavailable. A few days I went 12+ hours between pumping. I was miserable, uncomfortable, hormonal, dehydrated and under fueled. Each day, my pumping sessions produced less and less milk. I’d come home from work and cry as I held my baby.I spent one whole evening searching Amazon for portable /cordless pumps- almost spending the $500. Then I remembered hearing about these supplements. I ordered them immediately, thinking worst case I’m out a few bucks before I committed to a few hundred.The VERY NEXT DAY after using “Pump It Up” my morning pumping session produced 4 oz instead of 2. I immediately ordered 2 more bottles directly from the Healthy Happy Hippie website. I couldn’t be happier with the results.The capsules do have a slight licorice flavor/scent, but I don’t mind it in the least. There’s no heartburn or indigestion and especially no burping aftertaste.HHH and Pump It Up saved my milk supply during one of the physically and emotionally hardest times in my life. I’m extremely grateful!
