Why Probiotics Matter for Breastfeeding Moms (and Their Babies)

Motherhood + Microbiome = A Big Deal

You’ve heard about probiotics for digestion, but here’s the scoop: probiotics are game-changers for breastfeeding moms and their babies. Your microbiome — that community of trillions of bacteria living in your gut — influences way more than just bloating.

And when you’re breastfeeding, the balance of your gut bacteria doesn’t just matter for you. It can influence your little one too.

Probiotics 101: What They Do

Probiotics are “good” bacteria that help maintain a healthy gut microbiome. For moms, they support:

• Digestive comfort* (bye-bye, postpartum constipation)

• Immune health* (because the last thing you need is more colds)

• Vaginal wellness* (balance matters postpartum)

For babies, probiotics from breast milk can support:

• Gut development*

• Immune system support*

• Balanced growth patterns*

Why This Matters for Breastfeeding Moms

After birth, your body is in recovery mode. Hormonal shifts, stress, and lack of sleep can disrupt your microbiome. Supporting it with probiotics helps you (and baby) thrive.

Pink Stork’s Lactation Probiotic was designed for this exact season. With 30 billion CFUs from 8 probiotic strains, it provides targeted support for moms + babies.*
