As an exclusive pumper who has produced 14,000+ oz in 4 months, here is what I recommend to boost, maintain and keep your supply! Since I have such a large supply, I like to experiment with foods and products to see what helps (and what doesn't). The...

I just can’t speak highly enough about Legendairy Milk. I did see a dip in my supply when I missed taking them for a week so now I have them on auto-scheduled delivery so I never run out again. I take them morning and night — it says 3x a day, but 2x...
Replenishment of essential nutrients is essential for lactation success! I LOVE these — wish I could snack on the lemon flavor 😋 they helped with my postpartum hair loss. Prenatal’s are for you, not for baby. Your body will take from its stores to p...
Ritual Essential for Women Prenatal Multivitamin
I take these daily to give my supply a boost and aid me in let-downs and expression. I also love that it boosts the nutritional value of my milk so my baby benefits as well. It recommends them up to 3x daily, but I take them 2x a day which is enough ...
Legendairy Milk Milkapalooza Lactation Supplement
This really loosens everything up and helps things flow better. If I ever have a clog or feel backed up due to stress, etc. I take a few of these and it softens it all up – I swear by these! They don't necessary boost milk production but when you are...
Legendairy Milk Sunflower Lecithin
These are a new item I have been trying! It certainly has made pumping easier, and I have less days where I feel like my milk struggles to release (I was previously having trouble with let-downs due to stress). I can't speak quite yet on if they have...
Legendairy Milk Lacta-Biotic Probiotic
Electrolytes
Since I produce SO much, hydration is absolutely essential for me! I lose anywhere between 6-9 lbs a day in liquid alone solely from milk expression so to counter that, I take in a lot of drinks. Liquid IV is fast, effective and these ready to use pa...
Liquid I.V.® Hydration Multiplier - Cotton Candy
Another favorite flavor of mine. Yum! Tastes like summer! Rehydration is key to lactation support. If you don’t stay hydrated, your body can’t function efficiently thus causing your body to make less milk.
These are my #1 go-to! I stock these in my mini fridge and drink at least 2 of them per day. They should sponsor me at this point. If you don’t like coconut water, these might not be for you because you can taste it a little bit but overall, they tas...
BODYARMOR LYTE Low-Cal Peach Mango
Coconut water is a natural way to rehydrate quickly. I often do half water, half coconut water and add a packet of electrolytes to really give myself a much needed boost. Any variety will do but I especially like these from Whole Foods.
Organic Coconut Water
If you like sipping on tea, this ones for you. I often relax while pumping with a nice warm cup. I add honey to sweeten it. I’m not a huge fan of licorice but this is mild enough where I don’t mind.
Traditional Medicinals Organic Mother's Milk Tea
I love this tea! I switch back and forth between this one and the other as they have different flavor profiles. I enjoy each one with a little honey to sweeten it. It’s great to relax with while pumping or rocking your baby to sleep.
Earth Mama Organic Milkmaid® Tea
Pre-made Snacks
Tons of different flavors! Similar to Chips Ahoy and Famous Amos as far as texture goes and they are great for quick snacks on the go. They feel like a treat, too! I have to keep them on the top shelf in our pantry so my 3 year old doesn’t eat them a...
Munchkin Milkmakers Lactation Cookie Bites
I LOVE these! Oats are great at promoting and supporting lactation and these are a great snack. They are also a healthy option as well.
Bobo's Oat Bites Stuff'd Variety Pack
Yummy! What a TREAT! Filled with galactagogue-inducing superfoods like oats, flax, moringa, almonds, pumpkin seeds & coconut. These foods are known to naturally increase milk supply and assist with lactation.
The Hampton Grocer Lacnola Lactation Granola
OMGEE, YUM! Crunchy and filled to the brim with lactation boosting ingredients! An easy to grab snack that packs a booster. It includes oats, flaxseed and brewers yeast which are all wonderful helpers, plus they taste GOOD!
Miracle Mama Milkookies Oatmeal Walnut Cherry
These are SO good! I don't know exactly why they boost my supply but they do!
Mamma Chia Organic Vitality Snack - Blackberry
Pantry Ingredients
A healthy option to add into your smoothies or bake into treats! It gives you a boost without adding many extra steps. I love adding it to oat energy balls or into my smoothies. I have even added it to my coffee creamer! It blends smoothly and doesn’...
Milkrush Lactation Support Oats Seeds Almond
I add this to EVERYTHING. My coffee creamer, my smoothies, my energy oat balls and my treat baking. It makes it so easy, doesn’t have a flavor and is debittered so no weird taste. It’s fantastic and really showed a boost within 2-days of introducing ...
Mommy Knows Best Brewer's Yeast Powder
My OB recommended this and I can’t get enough! It helps to provide you with essential nutrients as well as rehydrating properties. It tastes AMAZING — just a small pinch is all thats needed. I either add it to my water or take it straight from the ba...
Celtic Sea Salt
Baked oats, energy oat balls and overnight oats have been a staple in my diet for the past 4-months. You can make them sweet for a sweet treat or keep it simple with maple syrup or honey. They seriously give your supply a HUGE boost that I notice wit...
Bob's Red Mill Organic Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
Protein Powders
Oh my GOODNESS, this is SO GOOD. I add it to my oatmeal energy balls and also make shakes with it to keep my protein consumption up. Consuming more protein also helps with weight loss so watch those post-partum pounds fall off. It takes like cake so ...
Orgain Organic Vegan Protein Powder Birthday Cake
Talk about a treat! I add it to my cold-foam and top with graham cracker crumbs and chocolate sauce to create a s’mores coffee treat! So GOOD, and an easy way to keep your protein consumption up.
