Lactation cookies from mommoremilk

Based upon a review from my office mate, katanya this lactation cookies actually works..memandangkan i baru sahaja hantar anak i pergi ke nursery..and i punya stock dekat rumah x banyak..so i thought, i wanna try these lactation cookies..to boost up my milk production.

I googled around..what exactly is in these lactation cookies?? There are many recipes..but most of them have these items below:-

1. Oats
2. Brewers Yeast
3. Flaxseed Meal 

Items-items ni memang dikatakan dapat boost milk product -->galactagogue ..tp ini semua bergantung pada badan masing-masing..

One Bag of delicious Oat & Hershey lactation cookies..

Look at the size of the cookie..huge right..

My own experience after indulging in these cookies...

I notice sejak makan cookies ni, breast i asyik rasa panas and berat aje...bkn sebelah aje tapi dua-dua belah.. i think the cookies are working..tp dengan makan cookies ni, kena minum banyak air..kalo boleh, selepas je makan cookie ni, terus je minum air-->gelas besar 

After around a week consuming these cookies..i boleh rasa yg both of my breast terasa full..masuk office je..mesti nk pump dh..selalunye after 10 br nk pump..skg..dlm..kul 9 dh kena pump..now each pumping session boleh dpt around 5oz-10oz..Alhamdulillah..rezeki Lily..

Yeah..boleh wat stock lagi...setakat ni Alhamdulillah, still fully BF lagi..
As far as these cookies are concern, they work for me..
Ada lactation brownies jugak dari momoremilk ni..ingat nk try cookies dia dulu..
so for moms out there..do try these lactation cookies..it definitely works for me..

One day nanti nak try jugak buat sendiri..hehehe..i jumpa recipe ni dari mr google..

Other tips to maintain your milk supply:

• Remember to keep up your water intake. Have a glass of water next to you every time you breastfeed (right next to your cookies!). Ideally have a water bottle with you all the time and try to sip every 15 minutes.

• Offer the breast more frequently. Demand equals supply as far as breast milk goes – when you pump or your baby is nursing at the breast it sends signals to make more milk!

Happy Baking!!
