Our Products FAQs
What are lactation cookies, and how do they work?
Lactation cookies are a type of cookie specifically designed to help nursing and breastfeeding mothers increase their breast milk supply. They typically contain ingredients believed to promote and boost lactation, such as oats, brewer's yeast and flaxseed.
Here's how these ingredients are believed to work:
- Oats: Oats are rich in iron and fiber, which can provide energy and support overall health. Some studies suggest that oats may also have properties that help stimulate milk production.
- Brewer's yeast: Brewer's yeast is a type of yeast that is high in B vitamins, iron, protein, and chromium. It's believed to be a galactagogue, which is a substance that promotes lactation.
- Flaxseed: Flaxseed is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and phytoestrogens. Phytoestrogens are plant compounds that mimic the hormone estrogen, which may help stimulate milk production.
Many breastfeeding and pumping mothers enjoy lactation cookies as a tasty snack that can also provide some nutritional benefits. It's always a good idea for breastfeeding mothers to maintain a well-balanced diet, stay hydrated, and ensure they're getting enough rest to support milk production.
If you're experiencing concerns about your milk supply or have questions about lactation support, it's best to consult with a lactation consultant or healthcare provider for personalized guidance.

Are lactation cookies safe for pregnant mothers?

Many lactation cookies contain ingredients like oats, flaxseed, and brewer's yeast, which are typically safe for pregnant women in moderate amounts.
However, some lactation cookie recipes or commercially available options may include herbs like fenugreek (our’s doesnt!), which is commonly used to boost milk supply but is not recommended during pregnancy due to its potential effects on uterine contractions. Additionally, some pregnant women may have allergies or sensitivities to ingredients found in lactation cookies, such as nuts or dairy.
As always, it's best to consult with a healthcare provider before introducing any new foods or supplements into your diet during pregnancy. They can provide personalized guidance based on your individual health status and any specific concerns you may have.
Are your lactation cookies suitable for pregnant mothers with gestational diabetes?
Our cookies are homemade treats crafted with care, but it's important to note that they may not be suitable for pregnant mothers with gestational diabetes due to their sugar content.

It's important to remember that every pregnancy is unique, and individual factors can influence milk production. While lactation cookies may not directly stimulate lactation during pregnancy, they can still be a tasty and nutritious addition to your diet.

What is the shelf life of your lactation treats?
Our treats can be stored unopened for up to 1 year in a cool, dry place.
Once opened, we recommend storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where they can last up to 1 month.
For longer storage, you can freeze the treats in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. Simply thaw at room temperature before enjoying.
For brownies: We recommend storing them in the freezer as soon as you receive them to help maintain their freshness and texture. Thaw at room temperature before enjoying.
How do I store the cookies?
Use an airtight container or a cookie jar with a tight-fitting lid. This prevents air from getting in and keeps the cookies fresh for a longer time. If you don't have an airtight container, you can also use a resealable plastic bag.
If you want to extend their shelf life, you can store them in the refrigerator or freezer. Be sure to use an airtight container or freezer bag, and allow them to come to room temperature before serving.
How many lactation cookies should I eat in a day for effective results?
Every mother's body responds differently to lactation cookies, so there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer.
Generally, many nursing mothers find that consuming 1-2 lactation cookies per day can be a good starting point.
However, it's essential to listen to your body and pay attention to how you feel. Some moms may notice an increase in milk supply with fewer cookies, while others may need to eat more.It's also crucial to consider other factors that can influence breastmilk production, such as hydration, rest, breastfeeding frequency, and overall nutrition. While lactation cookies can be a tasty and convenient addition to your diet, they shouldn't replace a balanced and nutritious meal plan.
If you're unsure about how many cookies to eat or have concerns about your milk supply, we recommend consulting with a healthcare provider or lactation consultant. They can offer personalized guidance based on your individual needs and circumstances. Remember, the most important thing is to take care of yourself and your baby, and we're here to support you every step of the way.
Can I freeze the cookies?
Absolutely! Freezing cookies can be a great way to extend their shelf life and ensure they stay fresh for longer periods.

Do your cookies have a shelf life?
Since our cookies are lovingly homemade in small batches, they’re best enjoyed fresh. For the best taste and texture, we recommend consuming them within 1–2 weeks.
To keep them fresh for longer, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You can also freeze them for longer storage and simply thaw them at room temperature before enjoying.
Because our cookies are freshly made without preservatives, proper storage is important to maintain their freshness and quality.
Do your cookies contain allergens?
Our homemade cookies are prepared in the same kitchen, where some varieties contain nuts and others do not. While we take precautions to minimize cross-contamination, we cannot guarantee that our nut-free cookies have not come into contact with nuts during preparation.

Common Breastfeeding Questions
Is my baby getting enough milk?
Look for signs of sufficient milk intake such as steady weight gain, frequent wet diapers (at least 6-8 per day), and active sucking during feedings.
How often should I breastfeed?
Newborns typically feed 8-12 times a day, but feeding frequency can vary. Feed on demand, watching for hunger cues like rooting or sucking on hands.
How do I know if my baby is latched correctly?
A good latch involves the baby taking in enough breast tissue, with their mouth covering both the nipple and areola. You should feel a pulling sensation but not pain.
What positions are best for breastfeeding?
Common positions include cradle hold, cross-cradle hold, football hold, and lying down. Experiment to find what works best for you and your baby.
How can I increase my milk supply?
Ensure frequent and effective nursing, stay hydrated, get plenty of rest, and consider techniques like breast compression and pumping after feedings to stimulate milk production.
Is it normal to experience discomfort while breastfeeding?
While some initial discomfort is common as you and your baby adjust, persistent pain or nipple damage may indicate an improper latch and should be addressed.
Can I breastfeed if I'm sick or taking medication?
In most cases, breastfeeding is safe during illness. Always consult with a healthcare provider regarding medications, as many are compatible with breastfeeding.
How do I handle breastfeeding in public?
Practice using a nursing cover or breastfeeding in discreet clothing if desired. Remember that breastfeeding is a natural and protected right in many places.
When should I start pumping?
Start pumping once breastfeeding is well established, usually a few weeks after birth. Pumping after or between feedings can help increase milk supply and provide milk for occasional bottle feeding.
How long should I breastfeed?
The World Health Organization recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months and continued breastfeeding along with complementary foods for up to two years or beyond.
What can I do if my baby is fussy at the breast?
Try changing positions, ensuring a good latch, soothing techniques like skin-to-skin contact, or addressing potential causes such as hunger, discomfort, or overstimulation.
How can I manage breastfeeding challenges such as engorgement or blocked ducts?
Apply warm compresses or take a warm shower to help relieve engorgement. Massage and frequent nursing can help clear blocked ducts. Seek help from a lactation consultant if issues persist.
These answers provide general guidance, but individual situations may vary. It's always advisable to consult with a healthcare provider or lactation consultant for personalized advice and support.
