My secondary breast pump. I actually got these off Facebook marketplace without the box even opened!! I love them so much they’re great for on the go, or even if you need to pump one side while/after baby feeds! 10/10 would recommend!

Once again, hydration is key to producing milk. My personal favorite are the yellow Gatorade’s but I think any color works!

OATS!!!!!!! my personal favorite flavor is the maple brown sugar oatmeal, but any flavor should work. You can even take plain rolled oats and turn them into lactation treats.

Great on its own, but I personally like to pair it with things! I like it with my cereal, as a hot chocolate, and especially with the abuelita Mexican hot chocolate

The number one thing needed for the best pump is the right flange size. Breast pumps usually come with a 24mm however most women aren’t that size!! It’s essential you get your correct size for a better pump
