I ate the entire batch!! They contained oatmeal and brewers yeast two things that help with supply. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176970 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 11:58:30 +0000 skibobrown 176970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that's an awesome idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176961 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 11:30:34 +0000 Bluebonnet 176961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awesome idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176955 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 11:04:18 +0000 lemondrop 176955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great gift idea, I wish someone had done that for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176932 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 10:10:40 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 176932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I say great idea. They are supposed to taste great anyway so it's win win. Throw in something unrelated but nice too, like her favourite chocolate bar or magazine :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176915 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 09:54:15 +0000 sorrycharlie 176915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not even sure what a lactation cookie is, but sounds fantastic!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176897 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 09:39:35 +0000 heffalump 176897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's an awesome gift, what a good friend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176895 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 09:36:45 +0000 Weagle 176895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's a great idea! Someone brought some to me in the early days and I thought it was so thoughtful. I didn't have a supply problem, but I didn't mind eating some chocolate chip goodness :) I'm going to try to make some for my preggo friends once their babies are born. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176878 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 08:59:12 +0000 Andrea 176878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pastemoo: @chopsuey119: thanks ladies! yeah, she said she doesn't have time to cook anything so I doubt she will be baking any cookies herself either! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176857 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 08:22:34 +0000 chopsuey 176857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lactation cookies are a great idea! I wanted some when I was nursing, but was too tired and lazy to make some for myself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176853 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 07:55:55 +0000 pastemoo 176853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That would be awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176829 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 06:23:24 +0000 Andrea 176829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: she lives all the way in SF unfortunately. I have been calling and emailing once a week to check up on her. Glad you like the idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176822 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 06:10:06 +0000 mediagirl 176822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What a sweet idea! Give her the cookies, she will love them! Can you also give her some time in case she wants to chat or take a shower? :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lactation-cookies-as-a-gift#post-176819 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 06:05:26 +0000 Andrea 176819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So my best friend had a baby girl 3 weeks ago and is feeling understandably overhelmed, especially from breastfeeding. I want to get her something, just to cheer her up, and was thinking of making her some lactation cookies. 1) because who doesn't like cookies 2) it could help with her supply issues. It is like killing 2 birds with one stone. </p> <p>Is this a good gift or should I give her something totally unrelated to baby stuff or maybe just regular cookies? I don't want to risk bumming her out some more. </p>
