It seems like just about everyone is cooking from the pantry these days, and I really ought to be too. Now that we’re officially into the dead of winter it seems like a good time to eat up all of the vegetables I canned, froze, and lacto-fermented for just this purpose. So while I still…
Recipe and photos reprinted with permission from The Nourished Kitchen written and photographed by Jennifer McGruther (Ten Speed Press, © 2014) When I first started Nourishing Days, about six years ago, there were only a handful of real food bloggers that I knew of on the internet. I watched some of today’s biggest real food…
We are still grain free, but I am re-introducing lentils into our diet this week. We’ll see how everyone handles them. I am also going to try to get on top of making some sort of fermented vegetable every week so that I don’t run out. Perhaps this will spur me on to finally brew…
Deep summer means saying good-bye to certain vegetables in the garden. The collard greens, while heat tolerant to some degree, were bug-ridden early on and never really grew to full size this spring. We’ve been eating off of them for some time now but it was clear that they just weren’t going to grow much…
photo credit Just over a month ago my little brother came to visit. It was so great to see him. There had been two significant occurrences since the last time I saw him: #1. his second nephew was born and #2. a week before #1 occurred, he fell from a roofing job, breaking his leg…
As I’ve mentioned before, I grew up eating liver and onions. Every now and then when asked what we were having for dinner my mom would say "liver and onions" and we’d all sigh. It was not our favorite dinner. But honestly, I didn’t hate it. Perhaps I needed it, since I’ve been borderline anemic…

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.
