I Smell Like Pancakes!
Last week, my milk ducts became clogged three separate times (spanning the course of about 5 days). Once I cleared everything up, my milk supply for Lauren had dropped a lot! I tried everything I could to get it back up, but none of the conventional methods were working, so I spoke with a lactation consultant who suggested I take fenugreek, an herb that helps increase your milk supply. I headed over to Whole Foods a few days ago and bought a bottle of fenugreek pills. I've been taking them for about 2 days now and one of the interesting side effects is that fenugreek makes you smell like maple syrup. Apparently it's an ingredient in maple syrup, so I guess this makes sense, but it's pretty weird to be walking around the house and notice the smell of pancakes and then realize - that's me!
