Lactation Lab Breast Milk Nutritional Analysis Kit - Standard: Tests for Calories, Carbohydrates, Protein, Fat, Calcium, Iron, Vitamins A, C and B-12.

I was so thankful to have the opportunity to check out the composition of my milk as I was trying to figure out why my baby was fussy. It could be the flow of milk or it could be that I didn’t have enough fat content. I was able to rule our the composition thanks to the Lactation Lab. It’s a whole process of trial and error and this product helps you evaluate your milk composition, which is one of the few things that you have the option of testing.

Finally I could shut those people up. Those people refers to anyone who told me to switch to formula because it has more calories. My results showed that my milk actually had more calories than formula, so there! The results were extremely informative and I appreciated that they were written personally for me. Not a canned response. I also got them in a very timely manner. Its nice to have someone to talk to there when I reached out to customer service. All in all, I am so glad I finally splurged to do this test because the results were very telling.

Very pleased with my purchase. My baby is slow to gain weight so it is great to know (and provide the physician) that your milk is perfect (logically I already knew this but love the scientific backing). I received my results and incredibly personalized recommendations by email just 2 days after the sample was received by the lab. I would 100% do this again!

This is an excellent test kit. Instructions are easy to follow and send back. The results are great as well. Stephanie writes you a detailed email with your results letting you know if there is something you can improve on. I am actually going to re test in the future to see if I got the results I wanted ! Just a couple things to work on. It’s nice to have a peace of mind and know that my baby is getting quality milk.

So grateful for this kit. My baby was labeled as failure to thrive and I️ feel like it armed me with knowledge about my milk nutritional content. I really liked the personal recommendations for optimizing my nutrient intake. My providers all felt comfortable with the process and analysis. It truly gave me the confidence and helped relieve some of the guilt I️ was feeling because my baby wasn’t growing as expected. Still breastfeeding 3 months later and baby is hanging in there size wise, just small.

I’ve always wondered what the nutritional value of my milk is and am so glad I found this product! The test was so easy, I couldn’t wait and mailed it out the next day. Got my results after 4 days including the weekend! It is a bit pricey but couldn’t pass up the chance to optimize my milk for my baby.

I’m so thankful I have found this test, it gives me peace of mind knowing that my baby is getting the nutrients he needs and we can continue our breastfeeding journey!

Dr. Canale contacted me herself and explained my lab results thoroughly. She also gave recommendations as how to increase the Calcium and B12 in my breast milk and what foods to eat so that I can provide the best quality milk for my little one possible. The milk collection kit itself was also easy to use. When it comes to being a Mum and worrying about your baby’s food source, I am happy to have Lactation Lab available to me, to give me valuable information about the quality of my breast milk. M.

This is an excellent product allowing breastfeeding moms to understand the composition of their breastmilk. There are so many unknowns with the initiation of breastfeeding. As an OB/GYN I know that exclusive breastfeeding is considered best whenever possible but we are often left wondering if baby is getting enough, and, furthermore, if the quality of the breastmilk is sufficient. The process for collecting and shipping breastmilk for testing was simple and the report easy to read and informative. I learned that while the calorie content of my breastmilk was average, I was relatively deficient in several micronutrients/vitamins. I would recommend this product to any breastfeeding mom interested in maximizing her babys nutritional health.

As a new parent I am always questioning myself. Now I can safely say that my baby is getting all the nutrients she needs from the foods that I am eating. Plus they gave me tips on food choices . Id do it again in a heartbeat, plus they give you a discount when you return.
