That sounds really yummy and I may try it if she gives us permission. Thanks for the idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1704677 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 09:35:50 +0000 Meltini 1704677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for the responses everyone. D is almost 9 months old and I am currently mixing oatmeal with expressed milk but I recently went back to work and I worry he isnt getting as much milk as he did when I was home. Im trying to decide if I should keep going with what I've been doing or start mixing his oatmeal with something else so he can have an extra bottle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1704215 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 05:29:46 +0000 Purpledaisy 1704215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Breastmilk. Or if I didn't have any thawed milk I would just use water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1704207 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 04:14:26 +0000 Grace 1704207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Plain unflavoured yogurt, a little water to thin it out and a dash of cinnamon. It's yummy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1704203 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 03:56:44 +0000 lamariniere 1704203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use water or fruit purée. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703781 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 18:45:22 +0000 cmomma17 1703781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just water </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703761 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 18:27:57 +0000 lawbee11 1703761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use breastmilk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703747 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 18:17:58 +0000 Woolly Mammoth 1703747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just use water. I'm not pumping regularly and I'm mixing it really thick anyway. </p> <p>I used to use fruit purees sometimes, too, but now I usually mix in chunks of fresh fruit instead. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703268 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:25:21 +0000 PurplePeony 1703268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I mix a tiny bit of hot water with breastmilk because I'm never ahead of the game enough to take the milk out of the fridge so it can come to room temperature, and she doesn't like cold oatmeal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703166 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 13:58:52 +0000 rattles 1703166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used breastmilk when she was little and use cow's milk now that she's a toddler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703163 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 13:58:00 +0000 septca 1703163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>BM or water.

I tried formula because DS didn't always finish his oatmeal (when breastmilk was still a hot commodity since every lil bit counted), but he wasn't a fan of formula. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703115 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 13:36:57 +0000 skipra 1703115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used breastmilk and mixed in a tiny bit of formula powder to add extra calories since he was having weight gain issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703045 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 13:18:15 +0000 sorrycharlie 1703045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>when she was an infant I used some breastmilk. but she only ate it once or twice, she was not a fan!</p> <p>now as a toddler, I make it with water or milk, depending on what's handy. she loves it now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-in-oatmeal#post-1703034 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 13:15:54 +0000 Meltini 1703034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you breastfeed and feed your baby oatmeal, what do you mix in as your liquid? Do you use expressed breast milk, formula, water, or something else? </p>
