Really?  I like it very much.  I use about 1/2teaspoon of brown sugar
and I think it's quite good.  I've sometimes drink it just to have a
cup of tea just 'cause I like it.

No, it wouldn't be in such small doses. But I did find it helped me
some -- not so much with supply, I had plenty of milk, but one of my
babies seemed less fussy when I drank tea and more fussy when I didn't
-- nursing about the same amount of time for each.  And I went back
and forth several times and noticed the change.  Maybe it boosted the
quality of my milk?  I dunno.  Sounds odd.  I drank 2-3 cups steeped
about 10 minutes.   Not "supposed" to do anything at that dose, but it
sure seemed to.
