Harnessing the power of a herbal superfood blend, formulated by our founder Cindy, Dairy Fairy capsules are designed for mothers that are experiencing low supply, little breast change prenatally or are just looking for an "extra boost".
We combined Fenugreek, Goats Rue, Alfalfa, Blessed Thistle, Fennel and Marshmallow Root into this convenient capsule.
Known for culinary uses in India, Egyptian and Middle Eastern cuisine.
Fenugreek possess a chemicals, Diosgenin, similar to the female sex hormone estrogen. A key compound, diosgenin, has been shown experimentally to increase milk flow.
Galega, from the Greek word gala (“milk”) refers to the formerly widespread use of goat’s rue as fodder to increase the milk yield of cows, reportedly by as much as 50%. Goats Rue stimulates the development of mammary tissue.
Alfalfa, also called lucerne and called Medicago sativa in binomial nomenclature, is a perennial flowering plant in the legume family Fabaceae. It is cultivated as an important forage crop in many countries around the world. It has long been prized for its superior content of vitamins, minerals and protein.
Blessed thistle has been revered since the Middle Ages in Europe for its use as a digestive stimulant and nutritive tonic. Blessed thistle works effectively when paired with other galactogoues.
Fennel was highly valued in the ancient world for its value as a carminative, expectorant, and as a talisman used in various rituals. Fennel seed enhances let down for milk supply.
Althaea was derived from the Greek word ‘altheo’ meaning to heal or cure. When paired with another galactogogue increases milk supply and reported to increase hind milk production.

Founder, certified herbalist and certified lactation counselor Cindy Collins provides some of the most common questions and answers for Dairy Fairy!
Before using any supplements for lactation, we always recommend working with a lactation consultant first for support and guidance. This product is intended for postpartum use only. We recommend using supplements before 4wks postpartum with recommendations from a lactation consultant.
This product is for anyone person that is lactating, breastfeeding or pumping regardless of baby's age.
We recommend starting with 2 capsules three times a day. If after the fourth day you don't see results, we suggest increasing to 3 capsules three times a day. If your baby is younger than 3 months, they are often more sensitive (i.e. supplements, dairy, caffeine) to things in your diet. We suggest starting at 1 capsule three times a day for 3 days and then increasing the dose if your baby can tolerate it.
How long a jar will last depends on your daily dosage.
A 60 count jar will last 10 days if you take 6 capsules per day.
A 120 count jar will last 20 days if you take 6 capsules per day.
A 250 count jar will last 41 days if you take 6 capsules per day.
The timeframe to see results varies widely, some customers see them in less than 24hrs and some customers may take up 10 days. If the supply issue is glandular related, it may take 3-4wks of consistent use to see results.
However most customers notice a difference within 7 days. If you are nursing, best way to measure results is baby baby’s weight gain and wet diaper output. Experiences others have had are: let down quicker, let down length, fullness of breast, pumping output increase, breastmilk composition change (i.e. hindmilk increase), baby nurses longer and seems more satisfied. Some customers may experience one or many of these things.
This product is 100% plant-based. It contains no animal derived ingredients.
Common side effects when taking dietary supplements are occasional upset stomach or indigestion, this can occur with any supplement or vitamin. If you have a sensitive digestive system, we recommend taking supplements with or after a meal. If you are unknowingly adverse to an ingredient – you could develop topical hives/rash, if this should occur please take a picture of rash, contact us and discontinue use of the product. Reported side effects are rare, however some other side effects are in increase in bowel movements, nausea, change in bowel movement color/consistency for either mom or baby. Additionally, if you experience a headache it’s often a symptom of dehydration especially when lactating. However if headache continues after hydrating well discontinue use of product and contact us. Also if you should notice any indigestion in your baby it could be an indirect result of supplements when your supply is increasing. When your supply is increasing you may experience overactive letdown, which can contribute to gassy & fussiness. You can read more about overactive letdown here and here.
If you have tried one or more blends and are interested in combining products to see if it will give you better results you may absolutely do so.
Some customers alternate blends daily. For example, some customers have combined products in the following ways:
a) Blend A in the morning (3 capsules), Blend B in the afternoon (3 capsules), Blend A and B in the evening(2-4 capsules).
b) Blend A & B three times during the day, 2-4 capsules total each dose.
c) Blend A on Monday, Blend B Tuesday, Blend A Wednesday, Blend B Thursday, etc.
Ideally for absorption, it’s advised to take them on an empty stomach. However not everyone can tolerate taking supplements or vitamins on an empty stomach, so if you need to take them with a meal or a drink that is fine. If you can take them on an empty stomach, great!
These supplements can be used both short-term and long-term.
Some circumstances when customers use these supplements short-term are:
During growth baby spurts.
To recover from maternal illness, i.e a cold or mastitis.
Low supply due to temporarily hormonal dip related to menstrual cycle, we also suggest taking a calcium magnesium supplement during your menstrual cycle as it can help with the increase in estrogen that decreases milk production.
During times of stress that can negatively impact supply.
Returning to work or school.
Some circumstances when customers use these supplements long-term are:
All our ingredients are tested for heavy metals and microbiological contaminants. It contains no heavy metals.
If you are currently taking another product and want to switch from that brand to ours, if you have chronic low supply we do not suggest abruptly stoping a product and starting another as it may cause your supply dip. We do suggest continuing to take the other brand for 3 days after you have started one of our blends, then wean off of it. This will allow for time the new blend to build up on your system. However some customers do switch suddenly without any issues.
Yes this can be used in conjunction with Milky Mama tea.
Our lactation blends have a best by date on the label. We recommend using them within 1-2 years for maximum potency and effective
All of our blends work to increase milk supply. However they all do not work exactly the same for the same person as we are each are unique and can respond differently. When trying herbal supplements to increase milk production trial and error is necessary, there is not a a way to know precisely beforehand which blend will work best for you.Remember lactation supplements have their place but they can not replace the support and expert advice of a lactation consultant, we highly recommend contacting one if you are having breastfeeding issues. We can not guarantee a specific outcome or result, individual results may vary.
We make our products in small batches using the highest quality products from vetted suppliers that have a reputable history.
We document the entire process from beginning to end, only partnering with suppliers and vendors with good standing reputations that also follow GMP, regulatory compliance and FDA.
I got sick and had run a high temp for about a week. My milk supply dropped about 15 oz per day. I used this with Milk Machine and Milky Mama tea to get my supply back to where it was before I was sick.
Dairy Fairy has helped with my milk supply and my milk letdown. I absolutely love this product!
To be able to now exclusively breastfeed and start stocking up my own milk is best feeling ever . Thank you For this supplement it has done me wonders!
This definitely works. Around the time I placed an order, my supply really came in. I only need to take two or three capsules a day and I can pump enough to freeze five oz a day, plus fill two bottles! I typically save the pills for when my baby seems to be gearing up for a growth spurt. If she nurses all morning, I can take two capsules at lunch and have plenty of milk for the evening, when she tends to cluster feed. Great product.
Trying to produce enough milk for twins is challenging. This product has helped me increase production. I am pumping almost enough to keep up with my babies. Also amazing customer service! Thanks!!
Amazing Heidi! Congrats on your twins.
