🎁 Thoughtful gift for pregnant friends, baby showers, and new mums

These cookies are made for you if:

• You're in early pregnancy and looking for a gentle, ginger-flavoured snack
• You're queasy in the first trimester and most foods feel too rich or strong
• You're breastfeeding and want a milder cookie without fenugreek or brewer's yeast
• You want one cookie that supports both pregnancy and breastfeeding
• You're avoiding dairy, eggs, nuts, or soy
• You're shopping for a thoughtful pregnancy gift or new-mum gift

Not the right fit if you have a diagnosed oat or gluten intolerance, or if you've been advised to avoid ginger in pregnancy by your healthcare provider.

During pregnancy: Enjoy 1–2 cookies daily as a gentle snack between meals. Many mums find them most welcome during the first trimester when other foods feel too rich.

During breastfeeding:

• Step 1: Start with 2–3 cookies daily for the first few days to see how your body responds.
• Step 2: Settle into 1–2 cookies daily as part of your regular breastfeeding routine.
• Step 3: Combine with regular feeding or pumping, good hydration, and rest where you can.

Mama tip: Pair these cookies with our Rosy Radiance Pregnancy & Lactation Tea — also designed to span both stages — for a complete pregnancy-to-postpartum nourishment ritual.

A note for pregnancy: As with any new food during pregnancy, please check with your healthcare provider if you have specific dietary concerns or health conditions. While ginger has a long history of culinary use during pregnancy, individual circumstances vary.

I'm breastfeeding and worried about my supply. Will these help?

Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies are a nourishing snack made with oats and linseed, ingredients traditionally used to support breastfeeding. Food, water and frequent feeds or pumping all matter. If you're worried about your supply or your baby's weight, talk to your child health nurse, GP or a lactation consultant (IBCLC). You're not alone in this worry.

Between feeds and everything else, I forget to eat. Is a cookie enough?

It's a start, and far better than nothing. A cookie won't replace a meal, but Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies give you oats, buckwheat and linseed in a snack you eat one-handed. Keep a box by the feeding chair and a couple in your bag, so food is always within reach.

I'm up at 3am and my stomach feels off. What could I eat?

Something plain and gentle. Many mums find ginger flavours easier to face when other foods feel too strong. Keep a few Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies on the bedside table with a water bottle. No kitchen, no cooking and no noise. Have one, sip some water and settle back in.

I'm queasy and most food feels too rich. Will these taste OK?

They're made to be gentle. Soft vegan white chocolate and warming ginger, with no heavy dairy and no strong herbs. Many mums find ginger flavours easier to face when other foods feel too strong. If you have severe nausea or can't keep food down, see your GP or midwife.

Who are these cookies for?

Pregnant mums who want a gentle, ginger-flavoured snack, and breastfeeding mums who want a milder cookie without fenugreek or brewer's yeast. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies suit mums avoiding dairy, eggs, nuts or soy, with the may contain note in mind. They're not right if you have an oat or gluten intolerance, or if you've been told to avoid ginger.

When can I start eating them?

In pregnancy or any time while breastfeeding. Talk to your midwife or GP before using in pregnancy. Once the baby arrives, keep going. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies are the Nourish Mama cookie made for both stages, so there's no need to switch flavours when your baby is born.

What do they taste like?

Soft and gently sweet, with creamy white chocolate and a warm ginger note. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies are sweetened with organic coconut sugar and maple syrup, plus vegan white chocolate. There's no herby or yeasty taste, which suits mums who find other lactation cookies too strong.

I'm dairy-free and vegan. Are they suitable?

Yes. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies are vegan and made without dairy. They contain gluten from oats. They may contain traces of nuts, egg, soy and lupin, and fragments of nut or coconut shell. If you have a severe allergy to any of these, choose a different snack.

How many should I eat a day?

In pregnancy, 1 to 2 cookies a day as a gentle snack between meals. While breastfeeding, start with 2 to 3 a day for the first few days, then settle into 1 to 2 a day. Each 200g box holds 10 cookies, so a box lasts five to ten days.

When is the best time to eat them?

Whenever you need something gentle. In pregnancy, many mums keep a cookie handy between meals when appetite is low. While breastfeeding, try one at morning tea, after a feed or in the afternoon slump. Pair it with a glass of water.

How do I fit them into my routine?

Keep them where you'll see them: a box on the bench, a couple in your handbag and one by the bed. While breastfeeding, pair Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies with regular feeding or pumping, water through the day and rest where you can. Small habits add up.

What are the ingredients?

What allergens does it contain?

The recipe is vegan and made without dairy, fenugreek or brewer's yeast. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies aren't suitable for anyone with an oat or gluten intolerance.

Are they OK in pregnancy, or with medication?

Talk to your midwife or GP before using in pregnancy. This matters most if you've been told to avoid ginger. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies contain no fenugreek or brewer's yeast. If you take medication or have a health condition, check with your GP or pharmacist first. Once your baby arrives, they suit the breastfeeding months too.

How are they different from the other Nourish Mama cookies?

Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies are the gentle ginger cookie made for pregnancy and breastfeeding. Nourish Mama Choc Chip Lactation Cookies are rich and chocolatey, a family-friendly choice for breastfeeding. Nourish Mama Fennel and Fenugreek Lactation Cookies are herbal and for breastfeeding only. They're not for use in pregnancy.

Why not bake ginger cookies at home?

If you're queasy or feeding around the clock, baking is a big ask. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies arrive ready to eat. The recipe is formulated by Kelly Northey, Certified Postpartum Nutrition Professional, with oats and linseed for breastfeeding and ginger for flavour, in a vegan cookie made without fenugreek or brewer's yeast.

How do these compare with other lactation cookies?

Many lactation cookies lean on brewer's yeast or fenugreek. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies use oats and linseed, with gentle ginger, and contain neither brewer's yeast nor fenugreek. They're vegan, made for pregnancy and breastfeeding, and formulated by a Certified Postpartum Nutrition Professional.

Are they a good gift for a pregnant friend?

Yes. Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies suit pregnancy and the breastfeeding months that follow, so the gift stays useful after the baby arrives. Add a note suggesting she talks to her midwife or GP before eating them in pregnancy. They're vegan and made without dairy or eggs.

How do I store them?

Keep the box in a cool, dry place and close it after opening. Check the best-before date printed on the box. Each box holds 10 Nourish Mama White Choc and Ginger Lactation Cookies, about five to ten days' worth at 1 to 2 a day.

How many boxes should I buy, and how fast do they ship?

One box covers five to ten days at 1 to 2 cookies a day, so two or three boxes see you through a few weeks. Orders usually leave within 1 to 2 business days. Free AU shipping applies on orders over $99, with a $12 flat rate in Australia and $15 to New Zealand.
