Happy Thank You Thursdays Mamas!!! We all know that sometimes a nursing mama needs a little help boosting her milk supply and that is why we are SUPER excited about this week’s giveaway from our friends at Milkmakers. Milkmakers are yummy cookies made specifically to increase breast milk supply.
Gorgeous mompreneur Emily got the idea of Milkmakers after she realized that she needed help with her milk supply after returning to work when her daughter was born. She turned to her kitchen to see if she could make something yummy that would help with her low milk supply…turns out she did.
Milkmakers are healthy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies with a few ingredients added (like brewer’s yeast and flaxseed) to promote milk production. Brewer’s yeast increases the production of breast milk and provides B-vitamins and amino acids essential for moms and babies. Flaxseed offers omega-3 fatty acids, necessary for brain development, which can be passed from mother to baby through breast milk. The oats in the cookies help with boosting breast milk supply and provide whole grains, fiber, iron, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
One lucky mama will win a Milkmakers cookie starter kit. To enter, use the widget below to “Like” Milkmakers on Facebook, tell us why you would love to win and sign up for Milkmakers e-mail newsletter. Earn more chances to win by “liking” You! Lingerie and “liking” this blog post below.

My daughter is 5mos old and we’re still nursing strong, but it was around this time with my first daughter that my supply started decreasing even while pumping 3x/daily at work… I’m hoping to prevent that this time around, plus they would be a nice snack when I get home from work and have to feed both girls before being able to make and eat my own dinner!
I recently was able to donate a good portion of my freezer stash as a. we were not using it and b. the mama needed it. I would love to continue doing this and I know these would surely help me get on my way to doing that. I want to be able to help those mamas out there struggling to get enough (I of course think they deserve the cookies more than I do if they can get them) into their little ones.
I would love to be able to up my milk supply, then I would be able to pump and feed so I can have enough to be able to leave baby with a babysitter! Hubby and I need a night out! lol
I am in dire need to try these. I feel as though my milk supply is diminishing.Especially on my left side. I am trying to eat foods at home to help, but I am not sure if I am eating right or missing something. I tried a tea, and it didn’t help. Help me please!!
I’ve had homemade ones, they are delicious! They work well,, and I am trying to boost my supply to help a baby in need that’s in the nicu! These would help me to be able to do so!
We just recently welcomed our 2nd baby and this gift pack would be nice to try! Nursing is going great for us so far but when I go back to work, I’m worried about my supply dropping.
I would love to try milkmakers because I have a 10 mo old daughter that I am still nursing 3x+ over night and I would love to have enough milk to pump so my hubby can take a night shift!!
I’m currently nursing my 3rd child and I’m wondering if my milk supply isn’t as good this time around. I would love something yummy to help increase my supply! 😀
