Let me say this louder for the moms in the back who are being sold teas, pills, cookies, powders, and every magical unicorn potion on the internet:
Milk supply is built by milk removal.
Not by a smoothie.
Not by a supplement.
Not by a drink someone swears “boosted them overnight.”
Your breasts respond to one thing above everything else: how often and how effectively milk is being removed. That’s it. That’s the physiology. When milk sits in the breast, production slows. When milk is removed frequently and consistently, production increases.
Yes, some things can support you. Hydration. Nutrition. Rest. Good fl**ge fit. Stress management. But nothing replaces the actual signal that tells your body “hey, we need more milk.”
If you’re struggling, it’s not your fault. You’re not doing anything wrong. You just need the right information, not false promises.
Remove milk often.
Protect your supply.
Trust your body.
