Is this safe to take during pregnancy? I was giving up on breast-feeding my daughter because it was slowing down and we were thinking of NTNP... Now that I found out I'm expecting number two I am interested in increasing my supply again! Any tips?!
 
I've not tried them myself but lactation cookies are meant to worth a try.
 
I would be careful with herbs while pregnant...check with your dr before you take any internet advice on this one. I read it's not OK.

Found this...about 1/3 of the way down he mentions things that should be ok
(I would still check with a dr)
Dill, Marshmallow and Nettle.
 
The bottle of blessed thistle I have says on the bottle "do not take while pregnant". I would def. check with your doc first :shrug:
 
Don't know about blessed thistle but Fenugreek is definitely a no go while pregnant (it's considered a uterine stimulant).
