Baby Blues: Breastfeeding and Lactation Cookies

My little man is turning a month old in less than a week! I have only been breastfeeding him for 3 weeks yet I have started to feel the pressure that most breastfeeding moms do. It really isn't all rainbows and butterflies, I have realized it just now. There's the late night feedings, the on-demand feedings (this is especially hard when you're working), pump failures, and cracked nipples resulting from improper latching, among others. It's so heartbreaking to hear your baby cry as he asks to be fed when you're in the middle of a very arduous task or when you can barely get up in the middle of the night or during daytime when you haven't had a single wink. Nowadays, a 4-hour sleep is considered a luxury. Despite all these, nothing compares to the bond it creates between mother and child. The countless benefits of breastfeeding makes it all even more worth it.

When I was pregnant, the idea of breastfeeding was something very exciting for me. I started preparing myself so I can successfully breastfeed my child early on in pregnancy. One of the ways I did this was by consuming Lactation Cookies from Crumbs and Grubs. I also consumed these cookies as a healthy and nutritious option to satisfy my pregnant cravings/snacking. (See Article: Proper Diet and Healthy Snacks for Expecting Moms)

What are Lactation Cookies, exactly? Remember how older folks and your doctor would tell you to always include soup and malunggay in your meals to help with your milk supply? I know most moms don't have the time to make soup or can't stomach the bitter taste of malunggay. That's where Lactation Cookies comes in.

Crumbs and Grubs Lactation cookies contain all-natural and organic plant-based galactagogues. Galactagogues are substances that help promote lactation. The good thing about the Lactation Cookies from Crumbs and Grubs is that unlike other Lactation cookies, it doesn't contain Fenugreek, which means pregnant moms and even daddy and the kids can eat them too. Fenugreek causes hypoglycemia and contractions on pregnant women. These cookies are loaded with essential vitamins like calcium (to strengthen bones) , protein, omega3 (DHA for brain growth and development), vitamin C, to mention a few, all of which are crucial for mommy and baby's health and development, during pregnancy and lactation. The cookies are also packed with fiber, which aids in better digestion. If you have a toddler/kids, this is also a sneaky way to get them to eat their veggies! These are ideal snacks for pregnant women to munch their cravings on.

Started by a pregnant mom, looking for a healthy snack to munch her midnight cravings away, she started to develop Lactation goodies in preparation for her upcoming birth. She worked on finding the best natural, organic, and nutrient-rich ingredients to help promo

te breastmilk production while pregnant. She successfully came out with a healthy, pregnant-safe, and nutritious snack. As a strong advocate of Breastfeeding, she wanted to help other moms who are struggling with breastmilk production and breastfeeding. Thus, Crumbs and Grubs was born!
