This works so well!! I was able to relactate using this. The secret ingredient to these is really the brewers yeast and the flaxseed (linseed) meal (as well as the extra calories)... so you can really turn anything into milk-producing foods. I made a choccy cake but hubby and I ate it all in one and a half days!! So I had to make something a little more healthy like low fat yoghurt muffins. Seriously though if you end up making more milk and you're able to feed your baby more as long as you don't go overboard like I did with the cake you'll probably burn it off anyway through breastfeeding. The midwife at hospital told me lots of protein will help your milk supply so if ever it's a bit low I have bacon and eggs - always picks it up for me. I do find my milk is affected if I don't eat enough or I have too much sugary foods and not enough fattening/proteiny foods.
Oh and I got sick of hubby eating all my milk-making foods so I told him it'd make him make milk if he ate it. I knew it wouldn't but at least whatever I cooked would last a little bit longer!!
