Breast Milk And Banana Popsicles! Got your attention? Well, it has been super hot here in the Pacific Northwest lately, so what better way to keep cool than with a popsicle!! These are also wonderful for a teething fussy baby! I swear his face/lips are not frostbitten, lol. It is just the picture, promise!
Summertime (or anytime!) is the perfect time to make some delicious treats like popsicles, for your little ones! And since breast milk is a great source of nutrients, why not make some homemade breast milk popsicles? All you need is some bananas and breast milk, and you can add any other ingredients your little one likes. If you are a breastfeeding mama, I highly recommend making these for your littles!
How on earth do I keep the little one cool though? With Breast milk and banana popsicles, of course!! And oh boy did he LOVE them!!! These are SO healthy for your little one/s!!
Sitting poolside (kiddie poolside that is..) and watching my other kids play, the baby ate this popsicle up in no time flat!! Cute little messy face and clothes to prove he enjoyed this special ‘mommy milk‘ treat!!!
I think next time I will add other kinds of mashed-up fruits and possibly veggies too! The possibilities are endless 😉
Breast Milk And Banana Popsicles! Yum!

I never thought about it before! Too late for me to try it but my niece is having a baby & I will have to tell her about this awesome idea!

What a great idea! I will have to let my daughter know about these.
Tammy S says
What a fantastic idea. I wish I would have known about this when my kids were little. I will be sure to pass this on to my friend that has a little one.

I’ll pass on the breast milk and banana pops myself, but that is some infant gourmet stuff going on there… lol

Kim Delatorre says
Aww thank you!!! And yuck to heat waves!!!! Sounds like you have it bad down there!! Yikes! Stay cool 🙂
Christina says
How am I keeping cool? I’m not lol. I’m in FL so we’ve had nasty heat & humidity for months… I like to tell myself you get used to it… then I walk outside at 8am and immediately start dripping sweat and just give up the thought of being cool until November lol. I try to spend a few days at the beach (ahh, the sea breeze is slightly cooler) or the springs (always cold water).
Robin (Masshole Mommy) says
Great idea! We’ve been in the middle of a heat wave here in New England, too. It’s been brutal.
Kim Delatorre says
It is cooling down a bit today, yay!!
Richard Hicks says
First time I have ever heard of this, but it is one way of getting his milk! Looks like a cute little happy camper to me!
Kim Delatorre says
Haha! He loved it!
