It would be normal to lower supply at the beginning of pregnancy as well as
nipple soreness reported by some- that was my first dead giveaway with no 4.

To increase supply - eat better, drink a lot, blessed thistle , alfalfa or
dandelion would be ok in pregnancy.  However,  Fenugreek is CONTRAINDICATIED
IN PREGNANCY_  Caps for emphasis not shouting .  Fenugreek  is know to be a
uterine tonic and stimulant and early in pregnancy can be an abortifacient -
especially when combined with the  Cohoshes.  If she were in the last few
weeks of pregnancy i would say go ahead with the fenugreek, but she is early
on forget it.  if nipples are sore use a little calendula cream.
