Am running out of ideas. I normally have crackers and cheese or PB. Half tuna sandwich. Granola bars. Oatmeal drink. Yogurt. Fruit slices. I sometimes hit DD#1s stash of prepacked cake slices when I dbt feel like eating any of those that I mentioned. What are you usually having that's easy to pull for MOTN feeds?
I typically don't snack during MOTN feeds, not cause I'm not hungry...I'm just half asleep still! But, besides what you've mentioned, I also snack on almonds, cashews, cereal...anything I can easily grab a handful and go.
I keep a bowl of almonds next to my bed. I don't always get hungry after MOTN feeds, but it's handy to have them there when I do. They're great because I can just leave them out and they don't get crumbs in the bed.
Depends on whether you want just shelf stable or if you have time to run to the fridge. 1. apples 2. graham crackers with peanut butter 3. banana 4. peanut butter crackers 5. handful of cheeze its 6. cheese stick 7. premade half sandwich (make a bunch out of a loaf of bread and stick in a ziplock in the fridge) 8. yogurt 9. granola bars 10. breakfast bars 11. cheddar cheese with ritz 12. ritz bits with peanut butter or cheese are nice but divide up into snack size baggies 13. trail mix 14. chex mix 15. slice of ham and cheese rolled up 16. tortilla with cheese melted inside 17. tortilla with green chilies and cream cheese 18. glass of milk and an oatmeal cookie (lactation cookie) 19. frosted mini wheats in a ziplock bag next to the bed 20. other favorite cereal 21. banana bread 22. muffins 23. leftovers out of the fridge from dinner 24. mini applesauce cups 25. mini fruit cups 26. mini cups of pudding 27. what else?
basically all the stuff you tend to stick in kids lunch boxe. lol!
I ate those Nature Valley protein granola bars for nearly a year last time -- no prep on my part, and they helped keep me full! I'll likely do something similar this time...

I really need to work on healthy, convenient, snacks. I get bad cravings for sweet things and often give in to them. BFing twins & I am starving all the time and feel like I'm constantly eating. I am not gaining weight (maybe a couple pounds comes and goes), but I'm also holding on to an extra 30+ from pregnancy.
Anyway, thanks for the question, and the list! I could use ideas too Even 7m out lol.
