You can choose natural sources of protein like cheese,milk,soybeans, eggs ,poultry and pulses which are much more effective and cheaper. You should give her plenty of milk as it contains reasonable amount of proteins and calcium as well. Calcuim requirements are all time high during lactation. Give her Vitamin D3 supplement too

Hello yes you can give her protein powder in milk two times a day. Also give her healthy nutritious diet and lots of fluids in the form of milk, juices, soups etc. Breast feeding increases the demand of nutrition and so mother should be healthy.
