Breastfeeding biscuits are a wholesome snack for breastfeeding mothers.

Breastfeeding biscuits are also known as lactation cookies. Here at Sweet Graze, we take pride in knowing that we have spent years perfecting out breastfeeding biscuits recipe. We bake the freshest and yummiest lactation cookies, using only the best quality, fresh ingredients. Our delicious breastfeeding biscuits are packed full of important vitamins and minerals, so they help to nourish the breastfeeding mother’s body.  Sweet Graze lactation cookies also include a number of ingredients known as galactagogues. These are ingredients that are known to increase or improve milk production, and are sometimes also referred to as ‘lactogenic ingredients’.

Read on to learn more about Sweet Graze breastfeeding biscuits and how they may benefit you on your breastfeeding journey.

Sweet Graze breastfeeding biscuits are loaded with nutritious ingredients to support breastfeeding mothers’ milk production.

All of our breastfeeding biscuits include premium rolled oats (except for our gluten free cookie!), brewer’s yeast and flaxseed, which are all considered to be very nutritious lactogenic ingredients.

  • Oats are great comfort food, a good source of plant protein full of beta-glucan fibre, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. They are included in our breastfeeding biscuits because they are great at helping to keep you feeling fuller for longer, as well as providing your body with essential nutrients for milk production.
  • Brewer’s yeast is a true super food. It contains iron, vitamin B, key amino acids and minerals such as chromium and selenium, all which help to support healthy For many years, brewer’s yeast has been used to improve energy levels, improve mood as a general well being supplement.
  • Flaxseed (or linseed) is hands-down one of the best plant-based sources of fatty acids, especially omega-3s. We include flaxseed in our breastfeeding biscuits for their phytoestrogens, which are known to influence the production of breast milk.

Sweet Graze breastfeeding biscuits are a great on-the-go snack for busy mums!

Here at Sweet Graze, we have a selection of scrumptious flavours to choose from when you order your breastfeeding biscuits. If you’re having trouble deciding on just one flavour, we have created a mixed box so you can try them all and discover which one (or ones!) is your favourite.

We have also recently expanded our breastfeeding biscuits range to include a gluten free and a vegan option.

Sweet Graze breastfeeding biscuits all come individually wrapped and heat sealed in their own packaging, so that they stay fresh for longer. In their packaging and at room temperature, our cookies will last for around 5 to 6 weeks (but we bet you won’t be able to hold off eating them for that long!), or you can take advantage of our flat-rate shipping and can order up and freeze them. Such a convenient and nutritious snack to have on hand!

It’s nice to have peace of mind in knowing that you are snacking on something that is healthy and helping to nourish your growing baby. You can pop a couple of our breastfeeding biscuits into your nappy bag, so that you can enjoy a quick snack while you’re out and about, or pop one at your bedside table for a tasty midnight snack when you’re up feeding your bubba.

You can begin eating Sweet Graze breastfeeding biscuits at any time.

“When can I start eating breastfeeding biscuits or lactation cookies?” It is a common question that we get asked. The simple answer is that you can begin eating them at anytime! They are also suitable for the whole family to enjoy (and won’t make dad spontaneously lactate if he eats them, either!).

Sweet Graze breastfeeding biscuits are safe to begin eating whilst you are pregnant. In having said that, the body’s production of breastmilk is actually triggered by the hormones that are released by the brain when your baby is born, so we aren’t able to determine exactly how effective they are in that respect. What we do know though, is that so many of our customers have given us feedback saying that when they did begin eating our breastfeeding biscuits during their pregnancy, they produced more than enough colostrum; many of them were able to freeze this in syringes in preparation for the birth of their baby.

How long will it take before I notice the breastfeeding biscuits working?

The answer to this really depends on the individual. Many women say they notice a difference within some hours, or on the same day that they start consuming our breastfeeding biscuits. Other women have said it took them a few days to a week to see the difference.

It is important to understand that breastfeeding biscuits are intended to be complimentary and supportive to a balanced and healthy diet. If you want to get the best results from the galactogogue ingredients that are contained in our breastfeeding biscuits, you should be aiming to remove breastmilk frequently and effectively from your breasts. This means breastfeeding your baby or pumping milk out regularly and completely. Milk production in the body is based on an internal hormonal feedback loop within the brain: empty breasts trigger the release of hormones that work to produce more milk!

It goes without saying that every woman’s body is different, so therefore we cannot guarantee any specific results. If you are finding that the breastfeeding biscuits aren’t working for you in the way that you had hoped they would, you may have some underlying issues that require addressing by a professional. In such cases, we always recommend that you seek the help and advice of a  breastfeeding expert (IBCLC) or consult with your GP for a thorough health assessment.
