Yes, and no. If you are drinking the tea 4-6 times per day then no do not take extra.
But I have seen better success with moms using fenugreek capsules and blessed thistle capsules over drinking the tea. Not to mention capsules are a lot cheaper.
I am assuming you are using a hospital grade breastpump, these are the best for boosting your supply. And your are pumping every 2 hours around the clock, right?
Call the hospital where your daughter was born and ask to speak with the lactation consultant who can support you through this.

You can take both at the same time.
You can also try adding blessed thistle to the mix.
Start out with 1 pill, 3 times a day of fenugreek, and 1 pill, 3 times a day of blessed thistle and work your way up to 3 pills, 3 times a day of both.
