Common questions

What snacks help milk supply?

No single food is magic - supply runs on frequent feeding, enough calories, fluids and rest. Oat-and-flax snacks deliver the calories and fiber either way.

Where should I keep snacks after having a baby?

Where you feed: small jars of trail mix or stuffed dates by the sofa, the bed and the changing table. Night feeds burn real energy.

Do I really need lactation cookies?

No single food is required for milk supply - frequent feeding, enough calories, fluids and rest are what move the needle. Oat-and-flax cookies are simply a pleasant way to get the calories in.
