Our muesli for your melons has attracted a legion of fans. And it’s not hard to understand why. Every bite is jam-packed with organic buckwheat, currants, dates and walnuts along with brewer’s yeast, oats and flaxseed meal – ingredients known for supporting a healthy milk supply.

However you enjoy it, you’ll be topping up your tanks with a solid dose of vitamins, minerals and good fats. Just what you need to deal with the demands of motherhood.
Whether you’re a vegan mum* or just looking to fuel your body with the best nutrition available, you’ll soon be singing the praises of our mouth-watering muesli.

When can I start eating Franjos Kitchen lactation cookies and muesli?
* 34-36 weeks pregnant: Start with 1-2 of our nourishing lactation cookies per day, especially beneficial for those planning to express colostrum antenatally.
* 36-39 weeks pregnant: Increase your intake to 2-3 lactation cookies daily to further support your milk supply and load you up with goodness.
* From 39 weeks to birth: Enjoy 2 cookies in one sitting, twice per day (and take it as a moment of self-care in your day!)
* First week postpartum: For the first 3 or so days, your body will be producing liquid gold - colostrum. Colostrum is full of antibodies, vitamins and minerals and is incredibly important. Generally, your milk will ‘come in’ around day 3-5. To nourish your body with galactogens (ingredients that have promoted and supported milk supply for decades), eat 2 cookies every 3-4 hours. They are the perfect one-handed snack for breastfeeding!
* First month postpartum: As you work on establishing breastfeeding, it's important to feed every 3-4 hours (or every 15 minutes if they are like our babies!). Incorporate our lactation cookies into your routine to support your milk supply naturally.
* Ongoing postpartum needs: Tailor your intake based on your body's signals. For a boost before what you anticipate as a "lower" supply feeding, enjoy 2-3 biscuits 3 hours in advance. Many mums find this especially helpful for enhancing the afternoon feeding session.
