Lactation Cookies Recipe - Increase Breastmilk Supply

[Pholi]

MLR, you might even think about expressing evenings/night time, [off topic, sorry!] so that you have BM top ups for her during the day? I hope you can manage your supply so that you don't need to, but if you did find you have to give formula top-ups, welcome to the mix-feeding mamas club... there are a few of us here who do so through necessity.

Bump!

I just made a batch of these using the recipe on the BB website.. which is a bit different to the one oft-quoted in this thread? Are either more up to date or more effective?

Added half a banana and choc chips. Banana made it very moist and doughy even after a fair bit of cooking but I like a 'bouncy' cookie so that suited me!

Should I be eating them as I feed or say 20 mins (or whatever) prior?

I made a batch for my friends to try and it work. Suitable for my preggy friend too. But how long can this cookies be kept in an air tight container? Anyone knows?

As long as any homebaked goods - a few days, a week if it isn't too warm?

I love the recipe. I have been also coping with low breast milk production and increased my supply with an herbal natural home remedy called Healthy nursing tea. THese natural things are the best and safe.
