I have become a bit obsessed with the library over the past few years. Up until about four years ago I didn’t even like to read. Four years of chemistry jargon and lab tech manuals really spoiled the fun for me. But now that I have rediscovered the beauty of reading, and the library loan…
Weekly menu planner. For some reason “blank menu plan” is one of the most common searches to bring people to simple natural nourishing. I find it strange since I don’t actually have a blank menu plan on my sight. At least I didn’t, until now. After giving up on different systems, I am creating a…
This is a great bread for those who are looking for something gluten free and lower in carbohydrates at the same time. Coconut oil, and coconut products in general, are fantastic for anyone who is looking to lose weight and improve their health. Coconut oil not only increases your metabolism, but it helps keep you…
We harvested sweet potatoes last week. They were the only crop that made it through our hot, dry summer this year. The harvest seems to have been hindered by this year’s weather but even so what a gift it is to have a few boxes curing in the root cellar! And, if you’ve been following…
It is sweet potato season and I am already considering more growing options for next year. We only grew them for the greens this summer, having gotten them in far too late. The pumpkins were the big producer and we are very grateful for the harvest and certainly enjoying them, but sweet potatoes plus pumpkins…

Hi, I read your post on H2B@H. Do you know there are quite a lot of chocies of herbs you could take to build your milk supply up so you wouldn’t have to give the baby homemade formula?
Erin – Yep. I have taken every herb I could get my hands on, pumped around the clock, eaten every galactogogue in the book. I have a low thyroid that I am working on healing, which I suspect is the root cause of the milk supply issues. Thank you for your comment.
I read your guest post and wanted to comment about your milk supply issue. I nursed my 3 children from 12-18 months each and had supply problems with one of them. My doctor placed me on Reglan for a few weeks to help increase my supply. This medication is used for stomach problems or something not normally associated with lactation but it was successful in my friend and I.
He made several phone calls and read material about it before prescribing it but it works!
I also pumped on one side while the baby nursed on the opposite side every time or at least every other time to boost the demand.
Just a few tips that I thought you would like to hear to go back to all natural if possible.
