From Customers — General Products

I love, love, love your Nipple Cream product - it is, by far, the best product out there. I use it for everything, rash on my son's face, diaper rash, everything and it heals so well. I have told every mama I know about it!
—W., via email

My daughter had a nasty diaper rash from 2 weeks of age. I tried all of the ointments on the market. The doctor sent me off to the store to purchase anti-fungal cream and cortisone. After one week, her rash was worse and her buttocks were irritated. I purchased Motherlove Diaper Rash and Thrush Ointment. Within days, her yeast infection and diaper rash were gone! I will never put another ointment on her body again. Thank you!
—K.S. via email

I purchased the Mamacare Pack. So Far I have only tried the Pregnant Belly Salve and the Pregnant Belly Oil but was so very impressed with your products that I just had to order the 8 oz. Pregnant Belly Salve right away! It smelled so wonderful and unlike any other products I've tried, it doesn't leave a greasy residue on my skin! I will be purchasing your products again in the future and definitely recommending them to friends and family. Thanks for the excellent products!
—N.J. via email

We had a three month long battle with thrush in our son's diaper area and tried a wide assortment of products. Absolutely nothing worked until I tried your Diaper Rash and Thrush ointment. I was absolutely amazed at the speed of the healing.
—B.C. via email

Our oldest is 7 and has a lot of eczema and it has been a never ending battle to find a cream that soothes him, with no cortisone in it, since he was 3 months old. I tried Green Salve on my son's skin, stopping right away the itch and discomfort he feels constantly!!! Miracle!!!
—M.P. via email

Your Rhoid Balm is a lifesaver. I can't believe that after just one application I felt relief. The natural ingredients are what really attracted me to it. Thank you so much for making such an outstanding product. I'm telling all my friends about it.
—K.G. via email

My son Dresden has had a chronic yeast-infection diaper rash. We have taken him to the doctor countless times, they gave us prescription chemical creams that only made it much worse. We tried everything from Desitin and A&D to rosebud salve and Neosporin. We happened across your product Diaper Rash Relief. In 2 days the rash cleared almost all the way up. I will never try anything else ever again.
—K.S. via email

I want to let you know how much I love your Diaper Rash Relief. I have tried every diaper rash cream/ointment on the market, and yours is the very best! I also used your Nipple Cream and it was fantastic. Thanks so much!
—M.M. via email

I purchased a small jar of your Green Salve for a rash and it was such a success in our family that we went through it rather quickly. Thanks for making such wonderful products. I found the Green Salve because I was already using the Pregnant Belly Oil and loved it (during both pregnancies!). My OB is now suggesting it to her other patients since it gave me so much relief for the couple of weeks the rash was around.
—L. Austin, TX

During my first trimester of pregnancy, my skin got so dry. I asked my doctor to recommend something that I could use, and basically he told me to get used to it and after giving birth my skin would go back to normal. My sister in law who was also pregnant at the same time recommended using your Belly Salve. Well, let me tell you that is my LIFESAVER!!!! I use it all over my body and it keeps my skin nice. The salve is neither greasy nor heavy on the skin. I have recommended this product to my pregnant friends, friends that are not pregnant and to my Lamaze class. I swear by this stuff!!! Thank you so much for making this product and providing it to stores in my market area so purchasing it can be easy. THANK YOU!!!!
—J.Z., via email

I have been an extremely happy customer using your Nipple Cream for the past three years - for both nursing and on the diaper rashes of my 2 daughters. I have recommended it to every mom I meet as well. It's also wonderful to use under little noses when they're sore from wiping with a tissue and on chapped cheeks. The Nipple Cream seems to be soothing and healing very quickly.
—C.A., via email

I wanted to let you know I am forever grateful for the Green Salve. I was cutting habenero peppers yesterday. I unknowingly got the pepper juice on my face and mouth. It burns very badly. My husband was on the internet getting remedy options for me who was screaming in pain in the bathroom. We tried vinegar, milk, vodka, peroxide, water, ice, strawberry jam, baking soda, and then I remembered I just got a new shipment of Green Salve. I rubbed it all over my face and hands and within 10-15 minutes I was much more comfortable. It did the trick. It is my favorite salve! Thanks!
—K.H., via fax

I am almost seven months pregnant and you have already helped me three times! Your Nipple Cream got me through the winter, your Belly Salve — well, let's just say not one stretch mark, and now your Rhoid Balm has come to the rescue. Thank you for making such wonderful products that I can trust.
—S.V., via email

I used your Pregnant Belly Oil four years ago and have since sent a bottle to everyone I know who is with child. We have all loved it, not only for the oil, but for the comfort of applying it with our loved ones and other children, a way of bonding with the new baby.
—L., via email

I wanted to let your company know that I have been using your Pregnant Belly Oil religiously since the first month of my pregnancy with triplets and not one stretch mark. I am now at 8 months and counting, and have been recommending your oil to everyone I know that is pregnant.
—G. B., via email

I have to tell you that I just had my third child and had a terrible case of hemorrhoids, so my neighbor gave me a pack of your Sitz Bath herbs. Wow!! Instant relief. By far the best product that has ever worked.
—L. G., via email

From Customers — Galactogogue Products

I've had breast surgery and a few of my milk ducts and breast tissue was disturbed. Though I was able to produce milk, I was only able to produce little milk. Though I took fenugreek capsules, it did little for my supply. I received my More Milk Plus Special Blend on April 9th and by April 12th, I've been pumping twice the amount of milk in half the time!
—T.M., via eamil

I had a hard time making enough milk when I first had my son. I wasn't satisfying his hunger for the first 2 months of his life. I tried More Milk with Goat's Rue and a few weeks later my breast had gotten larger and I was producing 65 ounces of milk a day! (I was producing 8 to 12 ounces a day to begin with). After I told (my Lactation Consultant) about it and my success with it, she has referred others to try More Milk and More Milk Plus. She has had many success stories. Thank you thank you thank you!
—R., via eamil

I had a breast reconstruction when I was 21 and as a result had difficulty breastfeeding. I came across some research by an Australian Doctor that recommended the Motherlove More Milk products. I was so excited to learn that there was something out there that could help me. I found your website, not only did I get the More Milk Plus but also the Sitz Spray. Both products have been fantastic and I have been recommending them to anyone who will listen.
—B.H., Australia

I came down with a sudden illness that left me with little breast milk. I came across More Milk Plus and Goat's Rue and thought I would try them, hoping for a miracle to get my milk supply back. I noticed a difference after the first day! I cannot thank you enough for your products that have truly given me back one of the most important, loving and rewarding experiences I have with my son.
—N.K., via email

Knowing that I have the capability to continue nursing when I return home has made this deployment so much more bearable. The hardest thing I have ever done is leave my 6 month old daughter for a 4 month deployment. Your products have noticeably increased my lactation and have taken away my fear of "drying up". I cannot thank you enough!!
—K.V.

I love your products. The More Milk Special Blend has helped me significantly. I relactated when my son was 4 months old. I can't thank you enough.
—K.A., via email

I work as a Neonatal Intensive Care RN and am breastfeeding my nine month old son. I have tried everything and my milk was still decreasing from working long shifts and sometimes being so busy. Within 48 hours of taking Goat's Rue, I was leaking. I have been inspired to open a breastfeeding store, to help breastfeeding moms in my community! Thank you for your products and the inspiration!
—A., via email

More Milk Plus was a lifesaver, my milk supply began to dwindle for unknown reasons, this supplement allowed me to continue breastfeeding! I'm so thankful!
—K., via email

Without More Milk Plus, I wouldn't have been able to breastfeed my now 3-year old daughter exclusively while working full-time. I've been so depressed thinking that I might have to supplement with formula. A friend gave me her leftover Lactate Support supplements from a nearby co-op, but they are not nearly as effective as More Milk Plus. I am so glad to be back with the product I know will help me be most successful.
—L.S. via email

I just started using More Milk Plus about a week ago...and it's magic. Between stress and lack of sleep...my supply was really starting to suffer Within the week...my supply is back up to normal...and it's actually starting to exceed what was previously "normal"...I can't say enough about your product.
—K.G. via email

I gave birth to a child who had to be in the intensive care unit at the hospital the first few months of his life. I began pumping breast milk immediately for him, as he could not feed directly from my breast. Once my son came home I continued to pump and was close to a full supply some days, but never quite enough. I tried every trick suggested - massaging my breasts, hot showers, and fenugreek capsules until my skin reeked of the herb - nothing worked. A co-worker brought me what was left of her bottle of your "More Milk Plus" tincture and while I was skeptical, I gave it a try. Within a few days of using it I was pumping those extra ounces I needed to feed my son, it's been wonderful! I've been telling every midwife and doula in town about your product.
—J. H., via email

I did amazingly well once I started the herbs! What a dream! I had a surplus of milk finally! I was able to actually pump some and create emergency stores and I never worried any more that I had enough milk for my large baby. I loved my experience and recommend your products to all my friends! I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
—H.H. via email

I was so very worried that we'd have to supplement and it just about broke my heart. I searched and searched for something that would boost my milk supply. Now, I can pump between 6-8 oz per session! I will tell every breastfeeding mom I know about how wonderful More Milk Plus is!!!
—M. via email

I have Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome. Breastfeeding was something I was determined to do. My disorder was causing my milk not to come in sufficiently. I had to supplement every time and it was heartbreaking for me. My husband contacted your company, the owner recommended Special Blend and Goat's Rue. These products have helped me achieve something that I feel is one of the best gifts a mother can give a child - breast milk and love.
—L.C.K.

First, let me thank you enormously for the great help and support you have given me and so many other mothers. I bought your product More Milk Special Blend and it worked perfectly!!! My baby is now 6 months and breastfeeding has been great! I went through a terrible chest infection which gave me high fevers and general weakness, my milk supply was weak, I felt so tired and was afraid breastfeeding would have had to end. Lucky me, I found out about you. I'm so happy and extremely thankful, Motherlove and its product was the help I needed.
—J, UK via email

After going on Birth Control at 6 weeks, I lost my milk supply completely. Then I found More Milk Plus and it came back within 2 days! Thank you!
—W.G. via email

What a great product your More Milk Plus capsules are. I was worried that I'd have to start supplementing with formula. We've made it 4 1/2 happy and healthy months without any supplementing.
—D. via email

I would like to thank Motherlove for their product "More Milk Plus". With my first child my left breast stopped producing milk at around 5 months. Upon the arrival of my second child my left breast started to shut down within 2 weeks, I bought herbs with little success. I found your website and ordered the "More Milk Plus". Within 18 hours I had more milk than I could have ever dreamed. It has been about 6 weeks now and both breasts are working great. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
—J.T. via email

During the holidays, my milk supply dwindled - due to stress I believe. My lactation consultant suggested More Milk Plus and 36 hours after taking it I am able to pump out 6-7 ounces at a time! I would suggest this to anyone.
—K.C. via email

My pediatrician gave me a bottle of More Milk Plus capsules yesterday. I took one pill, my first pill, I woke up engorged in both breasts and leaking from one breast. Wow.
—K.C. via email

I wanted to let you know how much More Milk Special Blend has changed my life. I had an emergency C-section 5 weeks early and a premature baby who was too sleepy to latch on properly for the first month. I had a difficult time getting my milk supply established and struggled with low supply. However, once I discovered your porducts, my supply is right where it should be! It has been more than enough to satisfy my active baby who has now grown into a happy and healthy toddler. Thank you for saving our nursing relationship! I recommend your products to all other nursing mothers I know.
— R. via email

I just wanted to let you know that I'm such a big fan of More Milk Special Blend. Motherlove's More Milk Special Blend is a big reason why I am still nursing my son. I've now published two posts on my blog recommending it to women who want to increase their supply..
—C. via email

After my son was born I wasn't producing enough milk to feed him. I was desperate to find something to help my milk production. I got on the internet and found an article about "More Milk Plus". Within 24 hours I was leaking through my shirt! I told my OB about it when I went in for my 6 week checkup- she will be spreading the word to other patients - she has been looking for something like this! She said the perscriptions to increase milk production don't quite cut it! Thank you so much for your product! (from myself and especially my son!!!!!)
—H.G. via email

I LOVE YOUR PRODUCT MOTHER'S MORE MILK PLUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has totally restored my milk supply to the point that I am back wearing my breast pads to prevent leakage! Thanks so much!!!.
—W.M. via email

You literally saved my son a lot of pain and me a lot of heartache! My son has an anal stenosis. His anal muscle is too tight for him to be able to have bowel movements on his own. It's good that I chose to breastfeed because my son would've NEVER been able to pass the formed stools that come from formula feeding. When my son hit a growing spurt a few weeks ago, my milk production was WAY behind. I was desperate when I called the lactation consultant at the hospital. She said I could try More Milk Plus. My son still has NEVER tasted formula and his belly is quite full at every feeding. I say this with tear-filled eyes and heart- felt gratitude - THANK YOU!!!
—A.S. via email

I would first like to applaud the excellence of your products. While pregnant I used your Pregnant Belly Oil and Salve. I got no stretch marks. After giving birth, I had trouble breast feeding. Thanks to your herbal tinctures, More Milk Plus and Goat's Rue, I was able to successfully breastfeed my daughter, who will be one year in April. I am proud to say she is still breastfeeding as readily as a newborn. The Nipple Cream was my salvation in the early weeks of breastfeeding. The best way that I feel I can show my appreciation is to share my experience of Motherlove products with other moms and moms-to-be. I would like to sell your products on my ecommerce website.
—B.G. via email

LOVED your product. I nursed until our daughter was around 15 months old and then my supply dipped for some reason. I ordered some More Milk Plus and it did the trick...we got through the rough spot and continued nursing for many more months. Thank you!
—M.J. via email.

I recently started using More Milk Plus per the recommendation of a lactation consultant. I was completely amazed. I had tried everything else...but this REALLY worked! I wish I discovered it sooner! Thanks!!
—P.C. via email.

I just began taking your More Milk Plus yesterday, and already I've gone from producing barely 1/2 oz to over 2 oz. For the first time in weeks, I've had leaking when my breasts were full. I never thought I'd be so happy to ruin a shirt! Thank you so much.
—C.J. via email.

Your product put the joy back in nursing!!! My daughter is 8 months old and for the last 4-5 months I have really struggled to keep up my milk supply. I tried everything. I had just about resolved myself to putting her on the bottle when I discovered More Milk. I chose the More Milk Special Blend mostly because I am a gastric bypass patient and I know much of what I eat is not absorbed into my bloodstream, I figured if this product can aid with lactation induction in adoptive mothers, that I would give it a try. I am so happy I did!! I am going to sing praises of your product to every breastfeeding mother I know. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for giving me back the joy of nursing!
—M.L. via email.

More Milk Plus saved us from having to wean due to low supply and I now recommend it to everyone I know - it was a God send to us! Thank you so much!!!
—R.L. via email.

Motherlove saved my breastfeeding relationship due to breast surgery I had and I was skeptical but it really worked. What a wonderful product.
—M.R. via email.

Personally, I was just introduced to your products due to a low milk supply caused by PCOS. I'm sitting next to my huge bottles Goat's Rue and More Milk Plus. I'm so incredibly impressed with them that I'd love to carry them in my line of products.
—C.B. via email

The tincture is great stuff!!
—S.F. UK via email

WOW it works great. I went from only pumping about 1/4 oz to 3oz. Thanks for such great products.
—Alissa, via email

The More Milk Plus tincture you sent is already working brilliantly, and I would like to make an additional order.
—Rie, Tokyo, Japan

Your drops are wonderful! With More Milk Plus, my milk supply jumped from 18 oz. to 40 oz.
—Juliana, via email

I thought you may want to know that More Milk Plus worked! I'll recommend your site and the product to as many as I can.
—Sandra, via email.

With lots of tears and determination I got on the internet to see what I could find out about boosting my supply. I tried More Milk Plus and now I have a full supply! I have told lots of friends that have had supply issues about Motherlove and your products!
—Tori, via email

I was having trouble breastfeeding until a friend suggested your product More Milk Plus. I have only been using it for a week and I have not had any trouble at any of our feedings. I must say your product has been a God send. I told my OB doctor about it so hopefully he will suggest it to other breast feeding moms!
—Carolyn, via email

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was so afraid that I was going to have to stop breastfeeding. I bought your product and now my darling daughter is getting enough to eat. I told my doctor about this product and he will pass the information along to any mother who is having the same problem. He said it is more common than you think.
—Tashia, via email.

I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you how wonderful More Milk Plus is. I am so sold on your product!! I wish more nursing mothers knew about this product and I am telling everyone I know. Thanks to you and the La Leche League leader who turned me on to this miracle product!!!!
—Rachel, via email.

Love your products, love your site. When I was nursing my firstborn 4 years ago and working full time as a lawyer, "More Milk Plus" got us through many a growth spurt and helped me keep my supply strong. Your tincture was a lifesaver.
—Stacy, via email

I have been taking More Milk Plus for about four months now, since I started having milk supply issues when my son was about 5 months old. It is a real life saver, I notice a huge difference in milk supply if I don't take my More Milk Plus faithfully. Thanks for making a great product.
—Shannon, via email.

First let me say that I love your product line! I used your Pregnant Belly Salve while I was pregnant (no stretch marks!), and have used your Nipple Cream, Rhoid Balm, and "More Milk" tincture since my little guy arrived a few months ago. Based on my success with it, the lactation consultant that I used is now recommending your "More Milk" line to her other clients. I have also heartily recommended your line to my family practitioner (who sees both myself and my son), my chiropractor/nutritionist, as well as clients, friends and family members.
—P.A.G., via email

I am a nursing mother of twins and was introduced to your product by my lactation counselor. All I can say is that it is a miracle potion. It worked immediately and I never imagined I could produce as much milk as I did.
—G. D., via email

I just wanted to let you know how pleased I have been with your More Milk Plus tincture. I have had severe supply problems and almost had to give up nursing completely. An on-line friend mentioned your product, I tried it, and what a difference it has made! We're back to nursing a few times a day and thrilled since I began taking More Milk Plus.
—M. K., via email

I ordered the More Milk Plus about a week and half ago and I am amazed at the difference it has made. I had tried fenugreek and blessed thistle in pill form and noticed a slight difference, but not enough to satisfy my baby. As a last effort, I ordered your product and noticed a difference almost immediately. I just wanted to say thank you for my daughter and for myself. I no longer have to feel bad since I can produce enough milk for my baby. You have made a huge difference in my life and I am very, very grateful!
—K. K., via email

I have been taking your More Milk Plus off and on for a few months now to help increase my supply and I have to tell you that it is wonderful! I have been able to pump enough to freeze and had plenty for baby as well. Anytime I hear that someone is having supply issues and is looking for a solution, I ALWAYS recommend your More Milk Plus and will continue to do so. You have a great product there!
—N. G. via email

From Lactation Consultants

Your Nipple Cream is a HIT at the hospital. Our moms absolutely LOVE the cream. This seems to be the only thing that has helped.
Thank You,

—Tracy, RN IBCLC,
Lakeview Medical Center, via email.

I had a first time mom who had a c-section 2 days ago. She has sore tender nipples and even a scab on the end of each nipple. I gave her my last sample of your Nipple Cream today and she immediately felt that it was more soothing than anything else she had done. I love your product! This is the FIRST time I have been able to say that about nipple creams.
—Tracy, LC, via email.

The client was a woman with a hx of gastric bypass surgery. She had unsuccessfully breastfed her first child. Obesity is a red flag for insufficient milk production. She had gastric bypass surgery, Novemer, 2003. (With the birth of her second child) Mother immediately began pumping and using More Milk Plus tincture. Amounts pumped started slowly then increased consistently. She felt that More Milk Plus did help to increase her milk supply.
—Ann, IBCLC,RLC via email.

I have recently become an IBCLC lactation consultant and during my training, I was told that any type of herbal supplement was hype and "didn't work". I was approached by a nurse who had been having trouble with her milk supply. She told me about "More Milk Plus" and that, 8-12 hrs after taking the first dose, she had much fuller breasts and when she pumped, she got TWICE the amount of milk than before. After 3 days, she had to stop taking it because she was getting TRIPLE the amount milk than before. I am "blown away" at your product. It has changed my mind about supplements for breast milk. I work with postpartum patients who are very anxious about getting enough milk. I will be telling them about your product. I am so happy and relieved that there is a supplement for nursing moms that works as well as yours.
—Dawn, IBCLC, via email.

When my daughter found that her family would be adopting a baby she began with More Milk Plus and pumping. When she was getting more milk I decided to have her try Goat's Rue to see if it would help in devolping her glandular tissue and duct work. Whithin a couple of days she called from work to say, "Mom, I am engorged!" She is still nursing her 17 month old twins and is most grateful to Motherlove.
—P.G., IBCLC, via email.

My private practice uses Fenugreek and Blessed Thistle in capsule form and More Milk Plus tincture with very good results for increasing milk supply.
—Jane, IBCLC, via email.

I have had extremely good luck with Motherlove's products. I discourage any use of Reglan.
—Jennifer, IBCLC, via email.

Thank you Kathryn, your products are the best! I know that many, many LC's are so thankful for you and your work.
—Cheryl, L.C., via email.

I am the owner and operator of Positively Breastfeeding in London, Ontario, Canada. I often hear the lactation consultants on Lactnet refer to the "More Milk" products from Motherlove. These products seem to be wonderful. Many of my clients dislike taking the many tablets that they need to take of Blessed Thistle and Fenugreek. The "More Milk" products would be wonderful to have on hand.
—Tess, L.C., via email.

As a breastfeeding activist, I can't tell you how many women I have directed to your web site. Your products are incredible and very high-quality.
—W. J., via email

As a certified lactation consultant, insufficient milk supply is a common problem that I encounter in my practice. After resolving the underlying cause of the supply problem, I have found More Milk to be a fast, remarkably effect product in boosting the mother’s milk supply. Mother is happy and baby is happy. Thank you, Motherlove!
—P. G., via email

I have had great success with a tincture of galactogogues from Motherlove in my practice.
