Hi all mummies, Have anyone of you tried the lactation cookies? How was it? Does it really help in the supply of liquid gold? What is the recommended brand of cookies?

I think it depends on each individual. Just like how some people have no issues with supply whilst some have. For me, my supply has been fine. One day when I was really sick and had to see the doc, I was prescribed with a cough syrup that significantly reduced milk production. (already informed doc i was bf-ing...) Boy was I panicking! I couldn't pump much in the office and breasts didn't feel full nor heavy. I had Milk Maker's oatmeal raisin and stopped my cough syrup after some research and thank goodness, my supply came back. So yes it did help. However Milk Makers' lactation cookies had this taste and smell that is not too my liking. each cookie is humongous and to me, quite unbearable to finish one. After finishing 2 whole bags of a total of 20 huge cookies.. I tried SLB like what a mommy sugg above. The cookies and muffins are yummy, albeit muffins being very pricey. I am not a very hardworking pumper at the office but i managed to sustain. So i think SLB cookies helped. They are smaller bite size cookies which are not overly sweet yet yummy. :)
