increasing milk supply

thetatheta

Okay - what is the legitimate deal with lactation cookies?  I really want to increase my supply, but I have 2 issues with the lactation cookies:  1)  I'm allergic to flax and 2)  eating 4 cookies per day just sounds like an excuse to eat cookies and really won't help my weight loss endeavor. 

There has to be an ingredient (or grouping of ingredients) that contribute to the increase in supply and not the cookies themselves.  And, please don't tell me it's the flax.   Smile

    Brewers Yeast. I add some to my steel cut oats in the morning. I love the lactation cookies, but my scale didn't.

    I haven't made the cookies, but I do eat oatmeal often, and that helps quite a bit!
