Functional lactation cookies that actually taste good! These wheat-free and soy-free cookies contain a tasty blend of oat flakes, cane sugar, butter, sorghum flour, millet, flax and more. Moms are encouraged to eat two or three cookies one to three hours before breastfeeding.
A USDA Organic tea from a wonderful brand, this product contains fenugreek seed, cinnamon and carrot for a caffeine-free way to stimulate milk production.
A powdered chai-flavored latte infused with lactation-supporting ingredients such as fenugreek seed, blessed thistle and anise seed. Sugar, whey powder, stevia, cardamom and ginger root make this a tastier beverage. We only wish UpSpring had used a silicon dioxide alternative (such as powdered organic rice).
These take-along packets of blessed thistle, fennel seed, fenugreek seed and red raspberry leaf powder are a convenient way to boost lactation during the day. Also contains added vitamin D3 and folic acid.

Being a new parent is tough. These products can help make it a little easier.
