I Sat on the Bathroom Floor at 3am and Realized I Hated My Baby

Written by Sarah Ward,

When's the last time you enjoyed feeding your baby without dreading the next session?

The problem isn't your body, your pump schedule, your stress or even nutrition.

Four published trials tested one natural hormonal shift on moms who'd "tried everything" and the average increase by day 3 was 6.7oz.

Before I explain what it is, I need you to understand something most moms never get told:

The amount of milk your body makes isn't decided by how much effort you put in pumping or eating. 

It's decided by one hormone that almost every "lactation support" product on the market completely ignores.

The night my husband handed me a tin of formula and said, "Maybe you're just not cut out for this" — I knew I had to find the real answer.

The question you came here to get answered is obvious:

What is the hormone, and how do I get my body to naturally release more of it?

I'll reveal the 60 second daily method but it is crucial you understand this hormone's job.

The hormone is called prolactin.

Prolactin is your body's milk-making signal.

Prolactin tells your breast ducts to produce milk and convert what you eat and drink into nourishment for your baby.

Without enough of it, nothing else matters - which is why you've tried everything and still come up empty.

The simplest way to understand it:

Think of prolactin as your body's oven temperature.

High prolactin means the oven is hot.

Everything you put inside - food, water, nutrients - gets transformed into milk.

Low prolactin means the oven is cold.

You can fill it with every ingredient you need - oats, water, calories, electrolytes but without heat, nothing transforms.

The ingredients just sit there.

That's why the moms you see on TikTok with oversupply aren't doing anything special.

Their oven was just naturally running hotter.

And it's why you, doing everything "right," have empty bottles.

Your ingredients were there.

Your prolactin wasn't.

Here's Where Almost Every Lactation Solution Fails.

Once you understand the oven, the entire lactation aisle starts to make a different kind of painful sense.

Lactation cookies & teas.
They support supply if you already have supply. They don't build it.

Power pumping
Doesn't work if your prolactin isn't high enough to respond to the signals.

Fenugreek
Clinical trials show it has no significant effect on your milk-making hormone and can actually crash what supply you have left.

Triple feeding
A grueling protocol that sacrifices sleep, physical comfort, and sanity for fractional gains.

Extreme hydration
Chugging gallons of water under the oversimplified belief that fluid input equals milk output.

Lactation consultants 
Told your latch was perfect while your nipples bled. Told "you're too stressed" - making your own anxiety the villain. Took $180, handed you a nipple shield, walked out the door.

The pattern:
Everything on this list shares one thing in common - they don't address how milk is actually made. They treat the symptoms (low output) instead of the root (prolactin).

So what actually addresses prolactin?

What Naturally Stimulates Your Prolactin And Has Research Backing It.

There is a single plant that's been studied to increase prolactin and milk supply.

It stimulates your body's prolactin receptors to release a large amount of prolactin.

This plant is called Moringa.

Moringa is a leafy green and your body recognizes it the way it recognizes spinach.

Here's the part researchers couldn't ignore:

In a clinical study postpartum mothers taking moringa had their prolactin levels rise by a massive average of 231.72 ng/mL.

Which in simpler terms, didn't just turn the oven back on but raised the oven temperature to 400°.

And the results on milk supply in the same study cannot be ignored.  

Here's Moringa's Undeniable Evidence. 

In a randomized controlled trial, mothers on moringa had their milk supply increase massively.

Milk output was as  follows:

✅ Day 1: +0.9oz per day
✅Day 2: +2.2oz / day
✅Day 3: +6.7oz / day vs control

That curve isn't effort. You cannot pump your way to that.

That's the oven turning back on.

And in a separate trial at 3 months postpartum, moms using moringa produced 32oz/day versus 21oz/day for the control group.

Same bodies. Same breasts. Different prolactin.

Can I Just Buy Moringa At Whole Foods?

Technically yes.

Here's the catch:

The Moringa that worked in the clinical trials isn't the same Moringa on the shelf at Whole Foods.

The studies used standardized Moringa leaf extract capsules.

Not raw powder, not loose leaves, not the smoothie-boost stuff next to the maca.

Here's why this matters:

🚫 Unprocessed - Moringa contains compounds that need to be removed. These bind to minerals and stops your body from absorbing it. 

🚫 Dosage - The studies use precise daily dosing. You don't know the concentration or if it's leaf, stem, or mostly filler.

🚫 Not all Moringa is equal - there are specific leaf regions that contain more of the compounds to increase prolactin.

Could you theoretically get some benefit from a random Moringa supplement?

Maybe. 

But if you're exhausted, bleeding, and one more failed attempt away from quitting - you don't need "maybe."

You need the form, dose, and standardization the evidence actually supports.

The Only Moringa Built To Refuel The Milk Engine: Biomi.

 I went looking for a moringa formulated to the clinical-trial spec.

Here's what I found.

Biomi Moringa was the only one that met the whole criteria.

✅ Dosed to the studies. Each serving delivers the moringa concentration used in the trials that produced the 72-hour results.

✅ Proccessed. It strips the part of moringa that stops your body from not being able to process the prolactin increasing compounds.

✅ Specific leaf regions. Biomi uses parts of the leaf that are most dense in prolactin increasing compounds - not random filler parts.

Biomi isn't another lactation supplement.

It increases your prolactin to finally let you live your motherhood dreams.

All it takes is two capsules once a day.

Biomi is so confident in their moringa they offer a 60-Day More Milk Guarantee.

Where if you don't see your supply increase, you get a full refund.

Right now they're running their biggest sale of the year.

So it only costs 66¢ per daily serving much cheaper than formula costing $5–$7 a day.

And with this sale you get a free ebook on how to get the best results from moringa for breastfeeding moms.

"I was triple-feeding around the clock and mentally in a dark place. My husband called me 'lazy' for giving formula. I felt like such a failure. Within 72 hours, I stopped dreading the next feed and finally slept through one pump."

Lexi Malia., 7 weeks postpartum

"My milk didn't come in for 5 days after my C-section. I tried everything, fenugreek, cookies, power pumping and the LC just said 'nurse more.' Within a week, my baby gulped instead of screaming. For the first time, my body didn't feel broken."

Felicity Dunn., 6 weeks postpartum

"I wanted my body back. I wanted my boyfriend to take over so I could sleep. Everyone said formula was 'the easy way out.' After 3 days, I dropped one formula supplement. My boyfriend stopped asking if she was getting enough. I could finally enjoy my baby."

Ruby McLeaver., 12 weeks postpartum

The Version Of Motherhood You Stopped Believing You'd Get

Picture this.

A Tuesday morning, 5:42am.

The house is still asleep.

But you didn't wake up at 3am to pump.

You slept until 5:30.

Six whole hours.

You'd forgotten what that felt like.

Your husband is still snoring.

Your baby is still in her bassinet.

And for the first time in weeks, you're not calculating when the next feed needs to happen.

Or even whether you'll have enough milk to feed her.

You make coffee. You drink it while it's hot.

Later, when your baby wakes, you nurse her.

She latches without the fight.

You hear her swallow - soft, rhythmic.

Not the frantic pulling-off that used to leave you bleeding and crying.

Twenty minutes later she unlatches on her own.

Milk drunk.

Content.

You hand her to your husband.

He feeds her the bottle of pumped milk from last night.

You take a shower. By yourself. With the door closed.

This is no longer a dream you've been praying for.

It's just Tuesday.

And for the first time in months, Tuesday doesn't feel like a battle you're losing.

A Note From The Author

You are not failing.

You don't deserve to feel guilty when you're doing everything you were told to.

Your prolactin is low.

That's a different sentence than "your body is broken."

One is a hormone level.

The other is an identity.

And Biomi increases it.

Biomi Moringa

Two capsules. Once a day. Sixty seconds. That's how to increase prolactin, your milk-making hormone.

60-day More Milk Guarantee. 66¢ per daily serving. Free moringa guide for breastfeeding moms included.
