Breastfeeding Diet Tips

Finding time for meals and snacks can feel difficult on busy days with a baby. Simple preparation and practical help from family or friends can make the day more manageable. Every person's needs are different, so choose food and routines that work for you.

Make meals easier to reach

Keep foods you enjoy available at home and consider preparing a few easy options ahead of time. A friend or family member may be able to help with shopping, preparing a meal or tidying up. You can also keep water nearby as part of your normal routine.

Plan for days out

When leaving home, it can be useful to pack a drink and a snack that travels well. Consider the time you expect to be away and whether your food needs refrigeration. Follow the storage instructions on packaged foods and check the best-before date.

Choosing a convenient snack

Our lactation cookies are made with supporting breastfeeding mothers in mind and are one option to enjoy alongside other foods. Ingredients and allergens vary by flavour, so check the label before choosing. Browse the cookie collection for flavours and pack sizes.

Ask for individual advice
