Sage tea to stop you from producing milk, anyone tried this??

[mamachat]

Hi

I am really trying to stop bf and have bought sage tea to help my milk dry up, have you tries this?

If so how long did it take for the milk to dry up? And how many cups did you drink per day??

Giving up BF too soon, amy have to give this a go. Mind you with my last two it just dried up naturally without any discomfort. On the subject whats the best way to get a toddler (18mths) to give up the breast without a huge upset (me and her!!!) No seriously, shes really fighting it especially at night. I understand other cultures use garlic and such like on their nipples as a 'put off'??

I don't know about Sage, but Pseudoephedrine (Sudafed) may help.

Have you tried it?

I have a friend who tried the sudafed - and it did work, was very handy as she had flu at the time!

Sudafed - does this dry up the milk or put the baby off going for the breast from the taste or something??

Also have already tried garlic soaked in olive oil and put it on my nipple, it smelt really bad but dd just drank anyway, she id that determined...
