Celina,
 
I would think that the nettles, which aids in letdown, could be what  
relieves the blebs.  Especially if the bleb was caused by blocked ducts or  even 
irritation from baby's changing latch since older and the more forceful MER  
pushed the milk through bringing the blockage with it.
 
Working with a mom now with 13 mos old who has a healing bleb and just may  
suggest she try MM+; will let you know.  All along I've been blaming this  
toddler's on again off again, pull the nipple with her behavior as due to  
distractibility when it could be less milk.  Horses, not zebras...(never  
remember that saying exactly).  Will post the outcome for her if she takes  the 
herbals.

"One other thing I wanted to say - towards the end of this first year, I  
struggled with low supply and two blebs on one breast. I finally had some 
extra  money and ordered some More Milk Plus which I hadn't used in months. 
Within the  first two days of using it, the blebs started to heal and clear 
out...  coincidence... I don't think so".

Hmmmm... any thoughts about which  component in this product would act this 
way? I will check with her about  whether or not she had blebs while using 
it earlier in they year, but I do not  believe so... 

fenugreek seed, blessed thistle herb, nettle herb, fennel  seed - Nikki 
Lee? Jennifer Tow?
