If you like oatmeal cookies, look online for a lactation cookie recipe. I just made a batch that are oatmeal-chocolate chip and include flax meal and brewer's yeast; very tasty and helped me tremendously with my supply. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/oatmeal-amp-milk-supply#post-359122 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:54:34 +0000 T.H.O.U. 359122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just used the regular Quaker oats but not the instant ones. I think eating oatmeal and drinking water helped my supply more thank fenugreek </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/oatmeal-amp-milk-supply#post-359089 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:20:56 +0000 creativemomma15 359089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, I have always heard to eat oatmeal to help boost and maintain a good milk supply, but I have also heard to eat certain kinds of oats... like steel cut instead of quick oats. </p> <p>Why is a certain kind of oats better than others at boosting or maintaining your milk supply? </p>
