Munchkin Lactation Cookie Bites, Oatmeal Chocolate Chip

As somebody who has ordered there cookies over 20 times between two pregnancies, I was surprised to see “chewy” in the description. They are firm, dry, and crunchy. That doesn’t mean they taste bad. I still find them appetizing. The consistency of the cookie also leads me to down a couple cold glasses of water with it, which is also good for
milk production. They do help slightly with maintaining my supply, but it would probably be much more cost effective to find a lactation cookie recipe and make my own. These are convenient and come in little packets within the big box which are perfect for grab and go.

It didn’t work for me 🙁

As a new mom who just started her breastfeeding journey, i was looking for lactation snacks that tasted good but also helped my milk come in. When i tried these cookies for the first time I was pleasantly surprised because they tasted absolutely delicious! They are just the right amount of chocolatey with a subtle hint of what tastes like coconut, pops of camarel, and the oats give them a nice crunch. They could be considered slightly dry at first but then they just melt in your mouth. I was shocked by how good they tasted that I had my husband try some and even he said they were amazing and always wants a cookie every time i have a bag which is at least twice a day and i have to stop myself from eating more. I love them so much that i go through about a box a week which says something because i have had absolutely no appetite since my c-section but cant stop eating these!

So not only do they taste great, but they helped my milk come in after about two days and eventually double by the end of the week. I was initially pumping 60 ml per breast and have now been at a steady 120-140 which of course is amazing. So if you’re looking for a snack that tastes great AND helps your milk supply, these are the ones! 10/10 would recommend.

These are absolutely delicious. As a product created by a brand that does not predominantly make food, these are surprisingly good. They also work. I noticed an increase in my milk supply after only eating these once.

I think it worked with milk supply, but too sweet!

For as many good reviews as these cookies get I was very surprised at how bad they tasted to me right out of the bag. They’re definitely edible but they taste like what I imagine fiber board + chocolate chips would taste like. I’m familiar with Milky Mama products so perhaps they’ve set my bar higher. On day two I mixed the cookies into some oatmeal with brewer’s yeast and milk. The cookies disintegrated pretty quickly but they honestly tasted better to me that way with some hydration via the milk. Fingers crossed they help with supply because at $20 for the package I definitely won’t be enjoying them just for the taste!
