Hey everyone! Kiara and Jiyan both turned a month old. Kiara is now 17 months old and Jiyan is 3 months old.
I am breastfeeding Jiyan currently and I got to try these UpSpring Milkflow Lactation Cookies before they were available to the public as a UpSpring's product tester program. They are the only ones with the Fenugreek and does work better than the other lactation cookies that I have tried when I was breastfeeding Kiara.
Not only these cookies helped me with my milk supply within the first 3 days, they tasted really good too. Honestly I can't believe these cookies are for lactation because they tasted just like a normal chocolate chip cookie. These premade lactation cookies are individually packed in sets of two, making it great for on the go.
These cookies do have herbs in them like blessed thistle and fenugreek. These herbs are well known to help increase the breastmilk supply.

When we are dealing with low milk supply, we tend to look for everything that may help. I am sure most of you all might have heard about the lactation cookie. If you have no idea what these milks boosting treats are, then you might have some question like
- Do lactation cookies really increase the breastmilk supply?
- How do they actually work?
- Is it better to buy them or make them?
↓
Lactation cookies are actually made with specific ingredients that are supposed to help increase the milk supply. Some of the ingredients are
- Flaxseeds
- Oatmeal
- Nuts and Seeds (especially almonds)
- Some specific herbs and spices
It's all these milk boosting ingredients that gives real power to the cookie to help increase the breast milk supply. I heard for many moms that they had Great Success with these kind of treats. The best way to find is to know which recipe works for you. Since every moms body is different, we may respond better to some specific ingredients than others. But honestly, getting enough calories and protein can help increase our breastmilk supply.
I have some great lactation cookies recipes which you can make it at home, which I will share in the another post.
For all those non bakers, I would totally recommend these UpSpring Milkflow Lactation Cookies.
